As such, many chose to leave most or all of their stuff in their dorms rooms if students were to come back. After the announcement that students would not return, Residence Life sent an email detailing a staggered move out process for students to come and retrieve the rest of their items in the dorms.

Rebecca Lartigue <rlartigu@springfieldcollege.edu> To: sigmatd <sigmatd@niu.edu> Wed, Mar 4, 2020 at 11:53 AM Hi folks-Not to be an alarmist, but I hope you're having conversations as an organization about appropriate responses should the coronavirus situation in the U.S. change. Colleges are beginning to put restrictions on student and faculty travel--so far, only international travel--but there could well be further advisories and cancellations as the situation develops, and these could well have a serious impact on the organization and on the success of the convention. I know it's very preliminary and hopefully the situation does not deteriorate, but please do keep us all in the loop as decisions are made--even informing the advisors at this point that you are having discussions would be reassuring to hear. my two cents, and thanks for all the work you do, Becky L. -Rebecca Lartigue Professor of English, Department of Literature, Writing, and Journalism Honors Program Director 413-748-3189 she/her or they/their/them � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The College is actively monitoring the situation. It is important to note that ​Massachusetts continues to be considered low risk​ and ​there are currently no identified cases of this coronavirus in New England​. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has confirmed five cases of the coronavirus in the U.S. – one in Arizona, two in California, one in Washington state, and one in Illinois. We know that a student at Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT was monitored over the weekend for the virus and tested negative. The student had recently traveled through an airport that had a confirmed case of the virus and complained of a fever and cough. The CDC continues to monitor and provide recommendations regarding the virus, a respiratory infection spread through cough and sneeze droplets. It is not airborne. Symptoms include fever, cough, difficulty breathing, and shortness of breath. If you are showing signs of any of these symptoms and have recently traveled to Wuhan City, China (within last 14 days) or have come in contact with an individual who had confirmed 2019-nCOv, you should seek immediate medical attention. Additional information about 2019-nCOv can be found at the ​CDC​. Among the recommendations of our Health Center for preventing transmission of this virus or any other virus including the common cold and influenza (which have similar symptoms to the coronavirus) are: · Regularly wash hands with soap and warm water or use an alcohol-based sanitizer · Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue into the trash · Avoid close contact with people who are sick · Stay home when you are sick · Do not share drinks or utensils · Avoid intimate contact, including kissing and hugging · Call the Health Center for an appointment to be evaluated if sick (413-748-3175) · Obtain a flu shot if you have not already done so (available at the Health Center) The Health Center can assist with any additional questions or concerns. The Center is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. It is recommended to call for an appointment at 413-748-3175. For after-hour emergencies, contact Public Safety: 413-748-5555. Sincerely, Dr. Patrick Love Vice President for Student Affairs 3/3/20: Message from Mary-Beth Cooper, President of Springfield College �Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff, The health and safety of our students is the College's highest priority. In response to news of a number of Novel Coronavirus (now called CoVid19) cases in Italy, Springfield College, in conjunction with our partners, has suspended study abroad programs in that country and withdrew all of our 15 students from Italy. All students have made plans to return home over the next few days where they will reunite with their families and finish out the semester. Our Italian academic partners have made arrangements for students to continue their courses remotely. Springfield College will work with students to minimize the academic impact of this transition. Any questions or concerns about academic progress should be directed to Mary Ann Coughlin, Senior Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs. Even though our students in Italy were not located in areas highly impacted by the virus, we recognize that this is a rapidly evolving situation. The decision was made in line with safety protocol established by our administration and best practices in international education. The health, safety and well-being of our students is our utmost priority. In line with the recommendations of health authorities, students are being instructed to self-monitor for possible flu-like symptoms and not visit campus for a period of 14 days. This afternoon, the Massachusetts Commissioner of Public Health advised all colleges and universities in the state to suspend college-sponsored international travel. Therefore, we are abiding and are suspending our college-sponsored international travel at this time. The College continues to closely monitor the spread of the virus and its potential impact on the campus as well as on countries where Springfield College students, staff, and faculty are visiting or are planning to visit. As this is an evolving situation, the College will continue to provide updates if there are any additional significant changes that may impact the Springfield College community. In the meantime, stay informed through the​ ​CDC’s website​ and await further guidance on prevention from our Health Center. Sincerely, Mary-Beth A. Cooper 3/9/20: Message from Mary-Beth Cooper, President of Springfield College �Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff: The College’s administrative leadership team has been monitoring the ongoing Coronavirus outbreak. The health, safety, and well-being of our community remains our top priority. We have two groups of staff and faculty working together to address this unique situation. We are in contact with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH) and are following guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), as well as the World Health Organization (WHO). I want to assure you that​ contingency planning is well underway. ​Based on developments across the country and internationally, we are implementing new policies regarding travel and campus events, all designed to protect our community as a whole.​ All decisions are subject to change as the situation develops, so ​we will update the community regularly to keep you informed. All communications and resources related to the coronavirus are available on our website at http://springfield.edu/coronavirus​. This remains the best place to locate Springfield College-related information and resources regarding the coronavirus. Additionally, f​or the latest general updates on the coronavirus, please visit the ​Centers for Disease Control website. Travel Information Faculty and staff are asked to suspend the booking of any domestic or international travel utilizing public transportation (e.g., airlines, buses, trains) until further notice, except for essential College-related travel as determined by the President. If you are unsure whether your travel falls into the essential category, please email your question to studentaffairs@springfield.edu. Further, all faculty and staff must register any authorized college-related travel occurring now through commencement (domestic and international). Please note that faculty and staff are restricted from college-related travel to Level III countries. Please monitor the CDC travel website (​www.cdc.gov/travel​) for up-to-date information on the status of countries. We are requesting that faculty, staff, and students register spring break and other personal travel planned for the rest of the semester.​ ​Such a registration process allows us to create a record of where people have been and will help inform public health outbreak tracking efforts should an infection occur on our campus. Please register your travel here: ​https://forms.gle/NT7r9MQitVdfaMWo7​. We strongly encourage campus community members to cancel personal trips to Level II or Level III countries. Events and visitors �We are asking that College sponsors check in with all invited and scheduled visitors and guests to confirm they have not been to a Level III country or been in contact with infected persons within 14 days of visiting our campus. Physical space We are in the process of providing enhanced hygiene and cleaning supplies in each classroom and common areas so that students, staff, and faculty can effectively cover coughs and sneezes and wipe down surfaces before each use. When possible, disinfecting wipes will also be available for wiping down technology that cannot be sprayed. Students who are confirmed cases, where possible, will be sent home to observe a 14-day isolation period. We will provide single rooms for students who may have been exposed to the virus and must self-quarantine on campus (if travel to home is prohibited). Class absences and sick leave All Springfield College community members should practice CDC recommended hygiene and self-care practices. Students, faculty, and staff should not come to campus or attend class when they are sick (especially if they are coughing, sneezing, or have a fever), or if they are caring for someone who is sick. Faculty should not penalize students for missing class due to illness. Students will coordinate with their instructors to keep current with coursework and assignments, and instructors should extend due dates as necessary for students who are ill. Students who are not attending class due to illness will inform the Student Affairs Office (studentaffairs@springfield.edu) of their symptoms and will be encouraged to self-quarantine at home, or may request a reassigned room if they are unable to return home for the duration of their illness. Students, staff, and faculty who are present in class or at work will be presumed healthy. Academics The Provost’s Office will communicate with faculty about the Academic Affairs Emergency Preparedness and Recovery Plan. This plan primarily addresses contingencies for the suspension of on campus operations for periods of up to two weeks, with some strategies for addressing longer evacuation periods. If needed, faculty will be provided with additional information and technical support. I appreciate the work of the faculty and staff who have assisted with our on-going response to the many issues which are associated with this complex and evolving situation. Please continue to monitor the website at ​www.springfield.edu/coronavirus​ for updates as they occur. �Additionally, I will be holding a forum on Wednesday night, March 11, 2020, at 8:00 p.m. in Dodge A-F for those community members who would like to attend. Best, Mary-Beth Cooper �3/17/20: Message from Mary-Beth Cooper, President of Springfield College Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff, Today, I have made the difficult decision that Springfield College is moving classes online for the remainder of the semester amid the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak. This decision was made thoughtfully and with an abundance of caution and concern for the health and safety of our Community. I understand that this is disappointing for all of us, but our highest priority is charting a response to the rapidly evolving COVID-19 threat, while maintaining academic continuity and integrity and safeguarding our students’ ability to finish the semester in accordance with all required standards related to federal financial assistance. We will continue to implement our on-going comprehensive transition to distance education. After the two-week extended Spring Break, spring semester classes will resume on Monday, March 30, conducted fully online, and will continue through the final exams period, which ends on Tuesday, May 12, 2020. While no decision has been made as of today regarding Commencement activities, we are exploring options. A decision will be announced as the situation develops. Students We understand students will still have many questions about how they will be supported in a fully online learning environment. Please know we are working to tailor our instruction and services to ensure that all students will be able to be successful. Resident Students Students will be able to collect the remainder of their belongings and clean out their campus residences. The move-out for residents will be conducted through a staggered schedule. Further information will be available later today. Please note: The moving out of belongings is NOT mandatory at this time. An additional time period for those who do not wish to come to campus during this scheduled move-out period will be established later. Faculty Faculty will continue to receive support for transitioning their teaching to online. Those who need support should reach out to the Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship. The office of �Academic Affairs, Deans and Department chairs, along with Faculty Senate are working together on other key transition issues and new information for faculty will continue to be provided and posted on the Academic Affairs website. Employees All staff and faculty have received comprehensive communications from their supervisors and human resources regarding telecommuting, recording time, and opportunities for professional development. Employees with questions about work assignments or expectations should check with their supervisors who are developing work plans in coordination with their division heads. All employees are encouraged to continue social distancing to the extent possible. We know this brings great disappointment to many of us, especially our seniors, who were holding on to hope that we could all come back to campus to finish up the year. However, we believe it is the right decision at this time. Best, Mary-Beth A. Cooper Springfield College President �3/23/20: Message from Mary-Beth Cooper, President of Springfield College Dear Members of the Springfield College Community, I am so proud of how we have come together as a community by demonstrating our continued commitment to our Humanics philosophy in everything we do. I am grateful for the extra effort to ensure that our students have the best possible experience in these unprecedented times. The move out of our resident students continued according to plan over the weekend. Our thanks again to our Department of Public Safety staff, Office of Facilities Management staff, and Office of Housing and Residence Life staff for their efforts as well as to our students and families for their understanding of this necessary process that none of us anticipated. Our faculty continue this week to prepare for online instruction and virtual learning that will begin March 30 and continue for the remainder of the spring semester. Over the weekend, our Physician Assistant program staff delivered supplies on behalf of the College to several local hospitals who had reached out to us for help, including the board chair of one local hospital who contacted me directly, finding themselves in critical short supply of gloves, masks, and sanitizers. After first assuring our own health center has the supplies it currently needs, our staff members quickly responded to a need in our community in true Humanics form. Today, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker issued an executive order closing all non-essential businesses and advising residents to telecommute as they are able, as well as limiting access to public venues for essential activities only. In compliance with the Governor’s order, our staff will continue to work at home with the exception of those designated by the order for the essential functions of the College. I hope this message finds you well. For more information on the College’s response and Q&As, please regularly visit ​springfield.edu/coronavirus​. Best, Mary-Beth A.

Title A name given to the resource Emails from Springfield College as progression of COVID-19 takes place Description An account of the resource The document consists of five separate emails sent from the time frame of 1/29/20 through 3/23/20. The first, sent from Patrick Love, VP of Student Affairs, was the very first message students received about being cautious of COVID-19. The next four emails, all sent in March, document the rapidly evolving situation the college was faced with. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emails composed by Patrick Love and Mary-Beth Cooper, Compiled by Noah Cummings Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1/29/20 - 3/23/20 Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Text/PDF Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant These were four emails that I received that accurately convey the tone by which Springfield College approached the Coronavirus pandemic during its early stages. It started off with a general warning, perhaps not even a warning, but an informative email about a situation unfolding in the world. Fast forward a little over a month later, and the college starts having to make some big decisions that directly impact its students. A month later, education is fully online. These emails, and the time frame they convey, indicate the rapid nature by which the college was forced to react to the COVID-19 pandemic. I would hope that people looking at this document in the future would recognize the tone of the emails, and the way that our President handled the situation. She has been absolutely great throughout this whole crisis, and though she is having to deal with the weight of some unbelievably heavy decisions for the greater good of the community, she has done it with grace and with comforting words for the students that are being impacted the most. President Cooper's heart aches for the students, and that shows not only through her words, but her actions as well.

I think it’s important to have not only future researchers, but people in general as well to understand that this means more than just the action of taking a photo. This is just one perspective of what was taken away from us so abruptly. Our last 60 days of being college students now when we look back won’t be filled with memories with friends and celebration; but as a reminder of what the COVID-19 virus has taken away from us.

Just 4 months ago I was at school playing soccer, living in my dorm and focusing on school. Before our fall semester ended, we were told to bring home everything you absolutely needed. Everything was so last minute that everyone was panicking trying to find a way to bring everything home. We had no idea if we were going back to school or not. This isn’t easy for a lot of people. My sister is missing the end of her senior year of college, my boyfriend missed his senior season of lacrosse. College is when you learn the most about yourself. Most importantly, you learn to be independent. You get breakfast, lunch, and dinner whenever you want, and work on time management to get homework done. Leaving school for spring break I was beyond excited. I finished my midterms, and was so ready to go home. Now, I would do anything to be back at school. I definitely took advantage of being at school. For example the one on one time you can have with teachers, going to the library to study, and being able to study with friends. Now, rumor has it we won’t be going back in the fall. I’d be missing my senior season of soccer. Being in the health sciences major, I have been educated on the pandemic. It’s ironic how I just took public health, biostatistics, and epidemiology. It’s nice because I have been educated on the pandemic correctly, and not just reading articles online. We have been in quarantine for around 2 months now, and I just might be going crazy. I have divorced parents, so this whole quarantine thing isn’t very easy. My mom is a hairdresser so she hasn’t worked in 2 months, my dad has coronary heart disease, my grandmother has COPD (a lung disease), and my step mom is a nurse. Both my dad and mom's house are never quiet. I have sisters and step siblings so the house so it’s nearly impossible to get any homework done. The hardest part about COVID is needing to take precautions for your family. It’s hard because you don’t know if you really have the disease until you develop symptoms, or if you're just a carrier. You could be grocery shopping and not even know that you have it. You can try as hard as you can to prevent getting it, but it’s hard and scary. I spend my days doing homework, going for runs and doing exercises, a lot of puzzles, and Netflix. It’s nice to be able to spend time with family, but I really hope it all ends soon. I hope that people are able to learn from this, and realize how stuff like this can happen and needs to be taken seriously. People are missing the end of their senior year, the best time of your life. I hope I will be able to finish my senior year playing soccer at Springfield College, and be able to spend time with friends during my senior year. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Some students were scared, while others disregarded it and acted as though Coronavirus was just another type of influenza. I remember going to my Evidence Based Healthcare course twice a week and each time, the number of cases in the United States went up, without stopping. I was not sure what to believe at this point. I did not think of it as a big deal until I realized my senior year could potentially be coming to an end earlier than I had anticipated. Some of my professors were preparing while others were not sure what to do. Students were scared and professors were trying everything in their power to tell us that it was going to be okay. I will never forget looking at the numbers of confirmed cases and number of deaths worldwide growing rapidly. Those numbers struck me each time I looked at them. I will never forget looking at the numbers and feeling like something big was happening and there was nothing I could do to stop it. After the first few weeks of discussing COVID-19 in my classes, I found myself trying not to listen. There was so much misinformation surfacing and getting spread around. I knew it was in my best interest to be prepared for the worst but hope for the best. It was the only thing I could do to keep my sanity in check. My feelings were numbed for months; I did not show sadness towards having to leave school until I had gotten home. President Cooper announced that our spring break was extended an extra week. This is when I knew. I knew there was no way I was going to be finishing my senior year on campus. That night we found out in the evening that spring break was extended, and my entire room was packed up by the next morning. Taking down the decorations from my wall hit me in a way that I could have never anticipated. Some of my roommates were much more hopeful than me and did not pack up a single thing to go home until the moment we were informed that we would not be coming back to campus. For me, I just knew. I knew that my �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project senior year was being ruined by something that I did not even know the entire premise of. All I knew is that it was time for me to move on. As I carried my belongings out to my car, almost every student I passed said the same thing, “you really do not think we are coming back?” and I answered with the same, emotionless, “not at this rate.” I went home for spring break and ended up being able to go on a trip to Jamaica. I knew this was the last time I would have freedom to be in public with other individuals for a long time. As I returned home from my trip, that is when everything hit me. I finally realized how impactful this virus was on the entire world. I was scared and did not know what else to do than to break down and give up. I have learned a large sum about myself throughout this entire experience so far. I have learned that in times of such uncertainty, I can get through it and come out stronger than when it began. My mindset has changed drastically over the past few months and I have become stronger for my family. It is not every day that I have to worry about something serious or life threatening happening to my family members. This experience has helped me and hurt me in a plethora of ways. The most difficult thing for me has been sitting at home alone, day in and day out, while my entire family continues to go to work. I am left at home worrying from the minute I wake up, until the minute my family members come home from work. My mother is a home infusion compounding pharmacist, my father is a state trooper, my brother is a firefighter at Logan Airport, and my sister is a nurse in the NICU. Although I am proud to say that my entire family is out there putting their own lives at risk to fight for the lives of others, I am scared. As they go into work each day, I pray that everything goes as planned and that nothing happens to them or the people they work with. I am unable to see my siblings during this time and it has been nearly impossible for me. To think that I cannot even come in contact with those who have been my biggest support systems for my entire life has crushed me both emotionally and physically. I �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project have to take precautions at home to keep myself safe so that my parents can remain able to go into work. My entire life has been altered completely and I had no say in the matter. One of the biggest things giving me joy during this pandemic has been social media and technology. Social media has played a major role for countless individuals during this time. I have been trying to avoid traditional news in order to diminish my risk of becoming disappointed or being exposed to incorrect news. Using things like Instagram, FaceTime and Zoom have given me a way to stay connected with my friends while also curating the information I hear about the pandemic. Social media and technology have been two of the only things, for a large part of the world, that is keeping individuals afloat. One of my closest friends at home stated that “TikToks are not saving lives, but they are entertaining people and making people laugh.” I never thought it would find myself saying this, but some of the only optimism being spread in the world right now has been through social media and technology. My aunt has recently been diagnosed with ALS. She was one of the first individuals I thought of when I realized this is a big problem and I need to be worried. She cannot have nurses come to her house and she cannot go to her regular doctor’s appointments. My entire family as well as our entire community has been coming together, as best as we can, to provide support and comfort for her. Her children have had to learn how to use intravenous medication for her as just one of the many things they can do to help. It breaks my heart to know that all of the individuals in the world with preexisting medical conditions do not know what each day will bring for them. A typical day in quarantine for me is very different from my usual days at home. I work out and stay active in hopes of keeping my mind off of things and I do work for school. I clean and disinfect the house for my parents so that they are able to go to work and feel safe when they �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project come home. I have been cooking for my family to take pressure off my full-time working parents. As much as it has been slow and relaxing at home, I have not stopped doing work since leaving school. Some of my professors increased the course workload making it incredibly hard for me to complete my degree and be there for my family. That is one of the biggest things I miss about being on campus. Being able to go my office hours and get advice from my professors whenever I need it. Emailing back and forth is very different from going to Locklin Hall to get assistance on my assignments. As a student living with a disability that largely impacts my academic work, having the resources available on campus was always something I was incredibly grateful for. I do not think that I took these resources for granted, but I can say with complete confidence that I missed having them during the last few months of my senior year. Online learning was different and I truly missed being in a classroom setting, but I am proud to say I managed to finish college under such unprecedented circumstances. I feel as though I am cultivating a large amount of resilience through this experience. It has been hard for me to stay hopeful and optimistic, but I know that my ability to recover and be strong for my family has grown drastically. I have learned how to become more independent and reliable at any moment. Each day, there is a new task for me to complete in order to keep my family safe. No matter if it is something big or something small, I get it done and try to keep an optimistic attitude. The real test of my resilience has yet to come. I am curious to see how I come back from this pandemic once it is all over. It will be hard for me to return to my normal ways once the world is opened back up, but I am hopeful that eventually I will be able to return to my pre-pandemic self at some point. There have been so many impressive as well as disappointing responses to the pandemic over the past few months. I have been impressed, to an outstanding degree, by the way the entire �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project Springfield College Senior class has come together to support each other during this time. I have gotten supportive remarks from some of my classmates that I have never even spoken to in person. The class of 2020 has become stronger than any other graduating class I have ever seen. This is not because of Coronavirus itself, but rather due to the way we reacted and the way I know we will come back from it. The night before we left campus was something I will never forget. We held a “senior day” for all of the spring senior athletes that were unable to have their own traditional senior day. We laughed, we cried, we danced and we hugged all night until the sun came up. This response to bad news was an experience that I know will be unmatched for the rest of my life. In terms of disappointing responses to this pandemic, the one that has stuck out to me the most is the individuals in the world that feel as though they do not have to follow the guidelines put in place by the CDC. It saddens me to know that there are individuals out there that are still taking this too lightly. If I could show those individuals one thing, it would be the pictures of my family members, at work, covered head to toe with uncomfortable protective gear so as to keep themselves safe while saving the lives of others. Even if you are not experiencing the virus firsthand, it is important to be cognizant of the fact that this is a real problem and the only true way to combat it is to follow instructions and guidelines put in place by the government and the CDC. There are many fears that have been running through my mind over the course of this pandemic. One that has been scaring me the most is what life is going to look like for the few years following Coronavirus. I planned to take a year off after college to get a job and then go to graduate school. Although my plan has remained the same, it has become much more difficult to follow through with it. Finding a job has been nearly impossible. On top of this, studying to get �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project into graduate school looks very different. There are far less resources for students to utilize. I have finally accepted the fact that I have completed my courses and graduated college in the same home that I started preschool in, and I will most likely be studying and applying to graduate school from home as well. The community has been forced to adapt to the current state of the world at a rapid pace, something that not everyone is accustomed to, but also something we have been forced to do. I have realized that my fears are different from those of others but everyone’s fears are justifiable. No one should be thinking that they are not allowed to be scared because someone else may have it much worse than them. We are going through this together and we will remain hopeful together. My greatest hopes for the future begin right now. I hope that individuals do not give up. I hope that we remain connected and bond in a way that we have never bonded before. It is us against one single virus. I want individuals, worldwide, to know that we can come back from the current situation we are in. In the near future, I predict that the world with be unable to completely return to life prepandemic. Individuals will remain scared and worried that something bad is going to happen again. Businesses will be impacted while employees will continue to lose their jobs. On the other hand, I feel as though we will continue to come together as a community and stay connected. In the long-term, I predict that the world will create a new norm for a while. Life might not be the exact same as it was before the Coronavirus outbreak, but it will begin to feel more normal as the days go on. If the Coronavirus pandemic could teach the world one thing it would be to open your eyes and see the underlying problems that are surfacing due to the pandemic. There are so many problems in this country that many individuals would not be privy to if it were not for Coronavirus. The individuals and families that are being immensely impacted are the ones that �Isabelle Copponi Springfield College Class of 2020 Archive Project were struggling the most before this pandemic hit. Keep an optimistic attitude, follow instructions carefully, and remember that we will get through this. Each day will come and go with new challenges to face and new problems to fix. This is just one experience, out of so many, that will make the world stronger and better prepared for what is to come in the future.

It is not safe for the dining hall to be open, so students are given food for 24 hours (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and asked to consume all meals in their dorms. There are a few nutritional components, such as a salad, fruit cup, and the main meal, but much of the food is processed and packaged. The paper in the front is the form that students must fill out and submit via email by 11 am to Cheney the day prior to receiving their food.

Title A name given to the resource Fresh Air When There's None Left Description An account of the resource The images are pictures of nature and the outdoors, the water is running and the grass is swaying in the wind. The images are all things that I have personally taken while on hikes and backpacking trips during lockdown and the COVID pandemic. In these images there are no people at all to be seen. This shows how quiet and nature is and how it differs from the world and the chaos going on during Covid-19. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource I myself took all of these photos that are being used for the archive contribution.

Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant I chose these photos because during times that were very hard for many and still are, it shows that there is still peace and tranquility. These pictures show that the world is still beautiful and that there is so much beauty in the world. Even when it may not seem like everything is okay, going into nature and just experiencing fresh air, the plants, and the wildlife, to me it makes everything seem okay. Nature helps me forget about the world for a little bit and all the stressors that come along with it. It helps me feel calm and safe.

I believe they spelled tough to show how tough they actually are and brave enough to be on the front lines testing and protecting people in the lines while waiting to be tested. This takes a lot of courage to put yourself in a position where you could catch the virus yourself if you do not the precaution seriously. It also gives an accurate representation of what the testing sites looked like and how they were organized so that people we safe and secure.

This image shows the schedule for which students could go back to campus and get all their belongings from their rooms before the campus was shut down. This experience was very different and weird for students, as we are used to being at school until the beginning of May, not the middle of March. It was the start of the transition to the concept of online classes, which was a major change for most students as not a lot of people have used that style of learning for an entire half of a semester. An event like this has never happened before, so it was a weird experience for students to have to return home from school two months early.

Subject The topic of the resource Erin Chadbourne giving speech on stage to families in cars. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Derek Davis Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource August 5, 2020 Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant The image I chose to portray how covid affected education is an image from my high school graduation. My school decided to do a drive-in style graduation, in a big parking lot by the water. We couldn’t have had a better night for it. Doing the ceremony outside gave everyone the chance to walk across stage and accept their diploma, all the while being socially distant. As president of my class, I had the opportunity to give a speech to my fellow classmates. As shown in the photo, I was basically speaking to a bunch of cars. It was very strange. I was unable to see the faces of my peers, but it was special nonetheless. It gave me the chance to say goodbye to everyone before we went our separate ways; something I was unable to do when we left on a random Friday. I feel like this graduation ceremony embodies the way my school handled Covid. It was no where near perfect, but they tried their best to make it as fun as possible. There was no way that the year could be “normal”. There were definitely many fails in their attempts to make it the best, but they still tried their hardest and that is all that matters in my opinion. My last semester of high school was definitely a let down, but it taught me to not take things for granted. Even if it’s just waking up at six in the morning to go to a long day of school. You will never realize what you miss until it’s gone.
