Are social ills making us sick?

Announced in March 2024, the Academic Testing Center is BU’s latest effort to provide crucial support for students. At 930 Comm Ave, the pilot program provides a comfortable and quiet environment for students with approved exam accommodations from Disability & Access Services to take tests, encouraging academic success while considering the individual needs and learning styles of all students.

In fall 2023, the professionally staffed LGBTQIA+ Student Resource Center opened on the second floor of 808 Comm Ave, following years of student advocacy for such a space on campus. The center, led by Director Katy Collins, will provide leadership and career workshops for LGBTQIA+ students, alumni outreach, and mentorship opportunities. And it will serve as a community hub for LGBTQIA+ students, where they can build connections and enjoy new opportunities for engagement and reflection.
