[quote=Anonymous][quote]And how do you meet new friends in school in the middle of a pandemic?[/quote]
At my freshman's school, they are emphasizing that they will have activities and events to help freshmen meet each other and to form that broader community. I know that they have had seminars and zoom activities in my DC's specific program all spring. Students may be living by themselves in the dorms, but they aren't on lockdown. They are bringing back some RAs, who will help build community and pass down traditions. I can see a lot of hanging out outside happening. Schools could setup big tents, outdoor tables (spaced) and put up some wifi hotspots to create outdoor study spaces. For my DC's school, fall is usually gorgeous weather. Outdoor movie night, outdoor scavenger hunt/puzzles, outdoor bonfires, outdoor arts & crafts - creative people will come up with creative solutions. It will in no way be "normal" school, but I'm optimistic that something positive will come out of being on campus for my DC.[/quote]
