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. With talk of a vaccine and preparations for a safe spring semester well underway, the prospects for the spring semester seem much more prosperous than the ones faced three months ago.Photo Credit: Will Zimmerman/Old Gold & BlackClick the link in our bio to read more from Rafael Lima (’21).

As Wake students reflected on the first-person semester amid the pandemic, they expressed a wide range of emotions. Some said COVID-19’s isolating effects had made them feel lonely. 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. Some cited a lack of motivation. Others said they felt a disconnect with their professors, had internet issues or had Zoom fatigue and eye strains from being on a computer most of the day. In a world determined by the spread of a pandemic, one fact does seem to remain the same: students want to return to normal. Soon, hopefully, that will be possible.Photo credit: Katie Fox/Old Gold & Black Click the link in our bio to read more from Cate Pitterle (‘24).
