COVID-19 Guidelines

We will continue to monitor the public health situation and reevaluate our in-person plans should circumstance change. We require all guests to adhere to federal, state, local, and University-mandated COVID guidelines for any in-person events. 

  • We encourage you to test before attending the event even if you are not experiencing symptoms. Rapid antigen tests are widely available at area pharmacies.     
  • If you have symptoms, no matter how mild, we ask that you do not attend the event—even if you test negative.   
  • If you test positive, please do not travel to campus or attend any events.   
  • At this time, the University has revised the guidance to the use of face covering/masks as optional in most indoor spaces. We recommend you continue consulting the CDC’s COVID-19 community levels to help make a personal choice on mask usage.  

The HLS Alumni Center will adapt these policies as needed based on public health guidance. Please check this page as the event date approaches to ensure you are aware of the current guidance. We will also provide email updates as needed for the Dean’s Advisory Board meeting.  

Thank you for adhering to Harvard University COVID-19 safety protocols. We can all play a role in preventing the spread of infection. We’re healthier together.
