Huge thanks to the students in @JosephHarrisBU's @BUSociology course for presenting their #BUMetroBridge research findings to New Bedford's Health Department on #COVID19 responses and strategies in several Gateway Cities. We look forward to sharing more soon!

A dogwood tree garden, an LED-lit walkable labyrinth, and abstract art along the beach wall. These are a few #BUMetroBridge student ideas for collectively honoring Revere's COVID victims. Thank you Prof. Rébecca Bourgault, @BUArts, and City of Revere for this partnership.

This is wrong, and discriminates against PhD students who have complex family situations, can’t afford to live “socially distant” in Boston, etc., with disproportionate impact on students of color. This should be walked back. It’s never too late to do the right thing.
