CHESTNUT HILL, MASSACHUSETTS – MARCH 31: A view of the campus of Boston College on March 31, 2020 in Chestnut Hill
Boston College is the latest Massachusetts school to require students to get the coronavirus vaccine before returning to campus in the fall.
The school said Friday that all students, faculty and staff would need to be fully vaccinated against coronavirus before taking part in any on-campus activities in the 2021-22 school year. The months since COVID-19 surfaced more than a year ago have been challenging, but our campus community has responded with generosity, commitment, and grace, President William Leahy said in a statement. I ask that we continue to help and care for one another as the spring semester comes to an end and planning for another academic year moves forward.

BENNINGTON, Vt. â When I was a student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, I took a course in âIntroduction to Frost,â taught by Professor William OâDonnell.
Professor OâDonnell might have been sent to us by central casting, from his bushy white eyebrows to his Harris tweed jacket to his red Chuck Taylors. And he delivered the goods.
Professor OâDonnell spoke with warmth and passion for the poetry of Robert Frost, who had been a friend of his. Though Professor OâDonnell was in his mid-60s, there was a playfulness about him. I well remember the day he told us of climbing a young birch tree, as the narrator of âBirchesâ had done, to have it bend as he neared the top and set him back down on the ground. It was exhilarating, he said, though the branches had left their marks on him.
