Community Well-being Updates
As has been the College’s utmost priority since the advent of the COVID emergency, Beacon has monitored, prepared, and taken action to protect the health and safety of our students and staff. The community continues to be vigilant in assessing the situation and to adjust our response as necessary. As always, our primary concern is for the welfare of our students and employees.
We ask that you continue to monitor this page for updates.
