By Marler Clark LLP

Babson College is calling students back to classes after a norovirus outbreak that made dozens of students ill at the Wellesley campus during the last week.

All regular and extracurricular activities were being held Wednesday, according to Babson spokesman Michael Chmura.
How many students actually returned to classes was not known.

Chmura said students who had experienced symptoms of the virus within the last 48 hours were advised to stay in their dorms and not return to classes.

Through Tuesday night, Babson was reporting that 83 students had visited campus Health Services since the outbreak began, while 42 students had called to report symptoms. Some faculty and staff members also became ill.
