As students are gearing themselves to return home for winter break, the concern shifts to ensuring that students will not be a source of virus transmission when interacting with their families and local community during the holiday season. The university has offered students pre-departure testing on Monday and Tuesday at no additional cost, and between the two days, 541 students got pre-departure testing after about 600 registered for the testing option last week.

Others said they were able to forge connections despite it. Still, more expressed surprise that the student body made it through the semester without being sent home.Students also had varying opinions on the nature of online classes.

The Editorial Staff asks: What does this mean for the university?While national politics has always held a presence on Wake Forest’s campus, we must ensure that students’ engagement in politics continues in a post-Trump America.
