From time to time events of local, national or international importance compel the Boston University community to come together in solidarity and support with each other and those immediately affected. This page is a resource and guide for those who would like to organize a vigil. Like any event a vigil involves clear planning, mindful execution, and a respectful atmosphere.<\/p>\n
