Dear MIT staff and faculty,

This afternoon, Vice Chancellor and Dean for Student Life Suzy Nelson sent the following letter to all students, highlighting important policies around postering, protests and free expression. We encourage you to read it. The communication is especially timely since we continue to learn of protests being planned on campus, including tomorrow.

If you find that you could benefit from support and counsel in this difficult period, we encourage you to contact MyLife Services.

Sincerely,

Cynthia Barnhart
Provost
