Happy Holidays

Dear BU Family,

With the Fall 2020 semester behind us, I wanted to take this opportunity to say Thank You to all our students, faculty, and staff for a safe and successful fall semester.

2020 has been a year like no other. But as we Huskies do, we have worked together and persevered with grit and determination. We have supported one another in and out of the classroom, and also those on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In short, our Husky spirit has kept us moving forward despite the challenges this year has brought us. And I am beyond grateful to all of you for your efforts.

To our students, thank you for your patience and understanding this semester, and for adhering to our health and safety requirements. 

As we continue to prioritize the safety of the entire BU Family and prepare for next semester, I look forward to welcoming you back to campus on February 1st. And we will be sharing more details regarding the Spring 2021 semester after the holidays. Please stay tuned to our website and your inbox.

To our faculty and staff, thanks as well for your patience, for your willingness to adapt and innovate in support of our students and their success, and for going above and beyond this entire year.

With the holidays now upon us, I wish all of you, and your families, peace, joy, and good health throughout this holiday season. As you celebrate with family – in likely smaller gatherings than in years past – please continue to be safe. This pandemic continues to affect communities across our country, so it is critical that we continue to do all that we can to keep ourselves, our families, and our communities as safe as possible.

My very best wishes to all of you and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

Go Huskies!

    Sincerely, 

    Bashar W. Hanna, President
