The Howard Thurman Center for Common Ground was mentioned in a BU Today interview with University President Robert A. Brown. When asked how BU is focused on the mental health of its students amidst the ongoing pandemic, President Brown said:
There was a lot of discussion of how our students will fare through the summer. Most of the protocols we have put in place take that into account. You worry about students on campus, just walking around with a mask and feeling isolated and being socially distant. But having places like the Howard Thurman Center and the George Sherman Union open and having our student clubs functioning will help give them connections. But more than anything, they will have each other.
The HTC is proud to be a place for community and connection even and especially during these uncertain times. Learn more about how (and when) to HTC this semester in our most recent weekly newsletter. And, read the full BU Today article here.
