Coronavirus Information

Welcome to the BSU COVID-19 Toolbox While the COVID-19 national and public health emergency has ended, the virus is still very active with periodic upticks in the number of cases. We encourage the BSU campus community to take the steps necessary to protect ourselves and others, including the option of wearing a mask.
