In December 2022, the MIT Working Group on Campus Visitors and Safety issued a report that included a series of recommendations relating to those who physically visit our campus.

The Working Group recognized that MIT regularly welcomes visitors from around the world, enabling interactions and collaborations critical to MIT’s mission of advancing knowledge and educating students.

The Working Group offered several recommendations aimed at balancing MIT’s value of openness with strengthened safeguards for community members. MIT leadership built on these recommendations to form the guidelines described in this website.
