  request a religious exemption, please contact us at WFTed@bu.edu.
• All teachers of WFT@BU in-person programming will be vaccine compliant as per requirement of Boston University.
• Masks are optional in accordance with Boston University’s Face Covering’s policy.
• All participants will be encouraged to wash their hands and/or use hand sanitizer throughout the course of the class/rehearsal.
• Any participant showing symptoms of COVID-19 will be isolated while arrangements are made for them to leave class/rehearsal.
• Any participant who has tested positive for COVID-19 or has been exposed to someone who as tested positive for Covid-19 will need to follow current CDC guidelines and let WFT Education Staff (wfted@bu.edu) know of your student’s absence.
