As a senior it was depressing to see senior week, the rest of their school year, and a time to take year book photos just disappear in front of my eyes. It even pushed back my graduation to August as of right now and can even be pushed back even more if the Coronavirus doesn't clear up by then. No senior was expecting this to happen at the beginning of the school year. We were looking forward to our last Sti-yu-ka, senior formal, taking graduation pictures on the green during senior week, and most importantly going to pick up our caps and gowns as a group, and all of this was taken away very abruptly creating a very heart-breaking end to senior year.

Title A name given to the resource Schedule Before and After Covid19 Description An account of the resource This schedule was one I made for myself each week to stay on track which took a turn after Covid19 took it's toll and made my classes online at home. On the left is my schedule of the week I found out about my lacrosse season coming to an end and school ending. We found out March 12th in the locker room our season ended and our Coach then told us to pack up everything because after spring break she believed we were not to come back to campus after, she was right. On the right is my online zoom class schedule, as you can see it's much more Lowkey in the sense that I'm not meeting with my classes as much as I did if I were on campus.

Each week my mom and I would create weekly schedules for myself this way was the anxiety hit I would look at my schedule and know what I could be doing instead of freaking out. I had many distraction: classes, work, practice, lift, meetings, therapy, homework, work. Just to name a few. I was busy all the time to keep a structure. Covid19 hit right as I was starting to figure it all out. My schedule now is nothing compared to what it used to be. My days now consist of a few classes if that and tons of "busy work" and then when my work is done it's down time up for me to figure out how I want to spend my time of social distancing now. These photos show complete differences in the sense that I went from being very busy and had a structure that I stuck to keep myself sane now not so much Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Springfield College Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Kelsey Darcy Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Text/PDF Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Text Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context past and present.pdf Early Days Home Life Student Athletes https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/51391/archive/files/c390b1239755f17d5ed4c36761d32cf8.pdf?Expires=1779926400&Signature=nly8BPfD84YP6pW7W5DQrTpD-Ox3ry0xONfM-HqBiqNGkQAgIwVD2qLtlIL1z6NZHFy9VNW6i%7EsQuX8dI0fO-3u--kDf1Qe%7EowjROVLAcPi5qBaFgMrrd564l89GsRCYEDwrNEoRB0A-ATiC%7EqEkn7Lyi3vEVS5CagaBL6N9A0gb32o4x8flv3MDhTxWCOY04-eshLzYCLt3C0tXe%7EiiKxe4ku-LiC7tORsU3mZFwFtcgkv6bqrdoAqa8xFuHpvaw9GtEu1L8T6DCXnWJIuu1VV6mKLJnSrFazhIjRcyS98HA4j-T4l1wYsOMvRwpiLrjJ3WkX8jRAbIugDjQcxAnA__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM 5b8b52b4a8d7d5109524bd6d8869fe5c PDF Text Text Springfield College News Contact: Office of Communications Damon Markiewicz (413) 748-3044 (office), (413) 459-1429 (cell) or Steve Roulier (413) 748-3717 (office), (413) 896-3298 (cell) Date: May 8, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Springfield College Health Science Students Assist with COVID-19 Data Project SPRINGFIELD, Mass. –Students from the Springfield College Health Science major have been working on a national project to track the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States. Students Yue Li, Ashley Tanner, Alexandra Christine Jones, Brenna Keefe, Dhruvi Patel, and Callie Dowd have been led by Springfield College faculty members in assisting with this very important project. Participating students are responsible for tracking historical data, collecting daily data, as well participating in special interest team projects that include computer based automation, data visualization, infectious disease, policy, social media, and fundraising. “A group of Springfield College Health Science students are participating in an internship that involves collecting data to track the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States,” said Springfield College Assistant Professor of Public Health Sofija Zagarins. “This internship is part of the COVID-19 Data Project, which is a collaboration of over 200 students, statisticians, epidemiologists, healthcare experts, and data scientists throughout the country.” BroadStreet’s COVID-19 Data Project is a collaboration of more than 40 colleges and universities throughout the United States, that are committed to having the most accurate, community level data about the COVID-19 positive tests and fatality rates. Along with Springfield College, colleges and universities also taking part are Harvard, Yale, Boston University, Temple, and Duke University just to name a few. Through BroadStreet’s COVID-19 Data Project Internship, health care professionals use the provided data to help improve how they spend their time and resources on improving community health. “We have been humbled by the outpouring of support, especially from the collegiate community,” said the BroadStreet Co-founder Tracy Flood. “We know that right now students have a unique set of challenges trying to navigate these difficult times, maintaining their studies, most who are away from home and while adapting to their new normal. Despite this, we wanted to recognize students who have graciously donated their time and talent to our project.” �For more information about the project, use the Covid19dataproject.org website to follow along with information and updates from the participants. Springfield College is an independent, nonprofit, coeducational institution founded in 1885. Approximately 4,100 students, including 2,500 full-time undergraduate students, study at its main campus in Springfield, Mass., and at its regional campuses across the country. Springfield College inspires students through the guiding principles of its Humanics philosophy – educating in spirit, mind, and body for leadership in service to others. -30- � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Physical distancing remains an important strategy because people spread the virus before they develop symptoms. 7 8 Preliminary data suggest that 20% of COVID-19 cases are severe, but this number may be lower if mild cases are undetected. Case fatality rate (CFR) varies by country; likely overestimated due to lack of testing These ”mild” cases include individuals who are extremely ill with flu-like symptoms 9 10 Preliminary US data from February and March: Mortality rates varies by age and ethnicity, and increase when hospital capacity is exceeded 11 20-30% of recognized cases aged 20-65 were hospitalized 12 2 �Public Health Working Group: SARSCoV-2 Status Report True proportion of severe/fatal cases will be unclear until antibody surveys are completed 5/20/20 Level of risk relative to other diseases is not clear Difficult to characterize because of uncertainty in R0 and CFR “This study will give us a clearer picture of the true magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic in the US by telling us how many people in different communities have been infected without knowing it,” said Anthony S. Fauci, M.D., NIAID director. Pink box reflects estimates from February. Green box reflects current estimates, with a lower CFR and a higher R0. “These crucial data will help us measure the impact of our public health efforts now and guide our COVID-19 response moving forward.” 13 14 We can move into the “new normal” when the population has herd immunity. Vaccination will likely be necessary to produce this level of immunity in the population. Recent research suggests that COVID19 infection causes antibody production, but it is unclear if these antibodies confer longterm immunity. 15 e.g., remdesivir, an antiviral drug originally made to fight Ebola 16 NYT article 5/18/20: Key take-home points Any physical contact carries the risk of infection, severe illness, and death. This will remain true until a vaccine or treatment is widely available. 17 State and federal governments will make recommendatio ns about when businesses can reopen; individual businesses will then make decisions about whether the risk of reopening is worth the continuing risks to their employees, and in our case, students. Current hot spots for infection are locations with residential living (prisons, nursing homes, hospitals). Decisions made by large organizations will have widely varying impacts for different portions of the population. Experts expect a second wave of infections to hit the US in the fall. Older individuals, individuals with chronic conditions, and Black Americans will be put at especially high risk by the decision of large organizations to open. 18 3 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Resilient Learning from Quarantine Subject The topic of the resource Willow Mennone (student) Cayenne (large dog) Description An account of the resource This image portrays Willow Mennone Springfield College Class of 2021, completing online homework assignments for Organic Chemistry, with the help of her dog, during COVID-19 quarantine. 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 reasoning behind choosing this photo primarily is to show the experience of a Springfield College Student learning from home. In this image there is a whiteboard that was borrowed from my five year old niece, in order to imitate the whiteboards at school in the Learning Commons. Next to my whiteboard on the TV stand is my modem, which tends to stop working at least once a day. The only way I can guarantee WiFi access it to sit right next to my modem. As for the dog, she is meant to show the comforts and therapeutic aspects of home schooling. Lastly, I purposely showed my organic chemistry work because taking a science based course from home has been an extreme challenge compared to other courses. Overall this item is meant to show the resourcefulness, creativity, struggles, and joys of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Title A name given to the resource Resident Assistant's Life From Quarantine Description An account of the resource This is a screenshot of an email I received from residence life in regards to our end of the year ceremony for all the RA's. Subject The topic of the resource Residence Life Awards Ceremony Online Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Willow Mennone Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource May 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 A huge part of being a student at Springfield College for me is being a RA. Having to go to school from home has eliminated this important part of my college experience, as I am sure it has for many others. I find myself reaching out to my residents often and making jokes with my family that they can get written up for having alcohol. Having the final RA awards ceremony be online is not ideal, but it at least it's something rather than it just being cancelled like most things right now. I also appreciate the line that refers to being all "Zoomed-out" because this is a very accurate representation of what it is like to be a Springfield College student right now.

This image was taken last year at the start of my senior football season and the governor of my state Ned Lamont and the DPH made a decision that we could not play football while the pandemic was going on. The loss of my football season was one of the biggest moments of loss during the pandemic.

This "no-kneed dutch oven loaf" is a popular recipe among novice bread makers (myself included), both because it's extremely easy to make and because working from home accommodates the dough's long rise time. I baked several more loaves during the first few weeks of quarantine but lost interest by mid-April.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Remington Ferrari Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource ca. May 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 I thought this image did a good job of encapsulating my pandemic education this past spring for a couple of reasons. The biggest for me was that I (and every student) missed out on the chance to work around my peers. Yes we got to use Zoom, but that doesn’t really replace what I’m talking about. I missed sitting in class working on an assignment with friends, just talking and having a good time. It's not something I ever really appreciated before, but once I started having to sit at my kitchen table all day doing my work, I really missed the casual conversation that would be sparked up when in the classroom setting with friends. The other thing I missed was the relationships I had built with my teachers. I am fortunate in the sense that I loved pretty much everything about my high school, and had a great high school experience. A big part of that was that I really liked the vast majority of my teachers. I built great relationships with a lot of them, and really appreciated being able to go over work with them. Having to submit work electronically was a bummer for me because it made it harder to get feedback on my work. Of course my teachers would leave comments and stuff on any submitted work, and they did the best they could, but it just wasn’t the same as being able to communicate this in person. In general, I just really missed the human interaction element of being in school.

Let’s get to 1,000! https://www.change.org/p/springfield-college-change-tuition-to-reflect-the-difference-in-educational-experiences-of-remote-learning?cs_tk=AlH3IXL6V… 1/9 �4/22/2020 Petition · Springfield College: Change Tuition to Reflect the Difference in Educational Experiences of Remote Learning · Change.org Charisse DelVecchio started this petition to Springfield College The following petition is intended to dissuade Springfield College from charging graduate students the in-person tuition cost for courses administered exclusively remotely over the Summer 2020 semester. Although a formal decision about summer costs has not been communicated to all graduate programs at this time, we respectfully urge the institution to charge the appropriate rate for the services provided. The current global crisis has created hardship for the university as well as for the student body. This crisis has required the university to move to remote learning, which changes the value of the education for which we are paying. In addition, the pandemic and its consequences have undermined our ability to pay. Given the change in access to funding sources faced by many students, the change in the quality of education, and the additional burdens imposed on students by online learning, there is no justification in charging students the in-person tuition rate for the Summer 2020 Session. We therefore encourage the administration to consider the following concerns, which are supported by the findings of the survey of students linked here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ND2nDjSIGdTCtfR5tqrhwQd0z81cLlIbrbOfUOjzGS8/edit?usp=sharing 1. The consequences of the COVID-19 crisis which have necessitated the move to online courses have also negatively impacted our ability to pay. The ability of Springfield’s graduate students to pay for summer courses has been reduced in a variety of ways, and consequently, we fear that our ability to enroll at Springfield College for the Summer 2020 semester may be jeopardized if the university chooses to impose charges greater than the normal online learning tuition. Funding sources are now scarce, as employment has been reduced, and federal loans are inaccessible for students in certain situations. Each student’s financial situation is unique, however, we all now face uncertainty regarding the status of future funding sources and employment opportunities. It is in the mutual interest of the graduate students and the college to ensure that enrollment in the summer session remains affordable in order to prevent students who have been impacted by the economic crisis to seek enrollment elsewhere at a cost consistent with online learning, or to disenroll due to financial hardship. It is critical therefore that the university charges the normal rate for online classes, as an increase would be cost-prohibitive and would affect enrollment. 2. Online courses affect the quality of education. Online learning is inherently different than in-person learning, and the cost of such courses must reflect that difference. The collective experiences of graduate students who have already been required to transition to online classes this semester reveal disparities in the quality and nature of education between in-person and remote learning such that in-person tuition cannot be justified. The included survey demonstrates that graduate students encountered greater difficulty in accessing faculty outside of allotted class time after transitioning to online classes. Additionally, due to the technological limitations of online classes, students spend less time interacting with peers and colleagues through collaborative work or in-class discussion. Moreover, a majority of graduate students reported reduced lecture time in online courses. Our findings suggest that the online format of our classes has reduced these enriching aspects of the education for which we are paying. Given the evidence that online learning is less valuable than in-person classes, charging the rate for in-person courses is unjustifiable. Indeed, the very fact that the two types of courses are priced differently supports this conclusion. 3. Online courses impose additional burdens on students. The included student survey demonstrates that online learning shifts various responsibilities and burdens to the graduate student. Remote classes require students to provide their own workspace and overcome the many challenges associated with working from home. For most students, this reduces the amount of space they have in which to study. Lack of space can make learning more difficult as many students are “attending” class in shared living spaces, and in some circumstances are responsible for dependent care and face distractions associated with shared physical workspace. A majority of graduate students reported reduced access to technology after the switch to online courses. Students must provide their own internet access, and many will have no access to printers, scanners, and other equipment. These changes impose barriers for students, and disproportionately impact the education of students with financial limitations. A majority also indicated that the nature of learning has changed since moving to remote classes, as they now spend more time independently learning. These increased logistical burdens on graduate students require more time, effort, and money, which would normally be offset by the reduced price of online courses. We respectfully insist the administration consider the concerns of graduate students and the data presented herein. The undersigned graduate students of Springfield College seek to be charged tuition rates for regional and online classes, rather than in-person graduate tuition rates, as classes are indefinitely switched to remote learning.

It is no exaggeration to say that the COVID-19 pandemic will be seen by future generations of historians as a turning point in national and global history. Already, historians and journalists are comparing the COVID-19 pandemic’s immediate impact and potential long-term effects to those of transformative events like World War II, the Great Depression, and the Civil War. Many of us are watching—nervously, angrily, or hopefully—televised speeches by our political leaders, reading harrowing firsthand accounts from doctors and nurses, or scrolling through social media feeds to learn how our friends, family, and various other connections are being impacted. As we do, we might consider that historians and their students 10, 50, and 100 years from now will do the same as they attempt to make sense of this moment. This historical perspective on the COVID-19 pandemic will be simultaneously global, national, and local. Historians of disease and medicine will sort through the data, policy papers, and communications of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Political historians will scrutinize presidential briefings and dig into debates in Congress, while those who study the history of social relations will pour through Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram posts, undoubtedly also making use of a growing body of photographs of deserted streets and socially distanced communities. But how will ​local ​stories be preserved? In particular, what will future generations of students, faculty, and administrators have to learn how their predecessors at Springfield College experienced this time? Assignment Your assignment is to identify, capture, and describe an item that could be used as a primary source by future historians and researchers to study the experiences of Springfield College during the COVID-19 pandemic. You will contribute this item to a digital repository created by Springfield College’s archivist, and you will provide important information about the item you selected that will enable future generations to use this item as a piece of primary source evidence. Please start by reviewing the brief reading in ​American Yawp ​that you did at the start of the semester about primary sources:​ ​http://www.americanyawp.com/reader/introduction/ �Remember, your task for this assignment is to identify an item that could be used as a primary source by future historians to study the experiences of Springfield College during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your ​item ​can take any number of forms (see below for examples), with the caveat that you must be able to submit it to a ​digital ​repository. The item must relate to the experiences of Springfield College—its students, faculty, and/or administration—during the COVID-19 pandemic. And you must provide the information (see below) about the item requested when you submit the item to the digital repository. Logistics --Your contribution of an item to the digital repository (including the required information) is due by Wednesday, April 22 at 12:00 midnight. --You will contribute your item ​directly to the repository​:​ ​https://sccovid19.omeka.net/ --For a demonstration/walk through of the repository and to ask questions about this assignment, attend the HIST 106 Zoom meeting on Wednesday, April 8 or Wednesday, April 15 at 8 p.m. [1] Items to Contribute​ Items can be anything that you feel reveals something about the experiences of Springfield College during the COVID-19 pandemic. Springfield College is a community of students, faculty, staff, and administrators. It is also a physical space—the campus—within the City of Springfield. So your item can be anything that captures something about what it was like to be one of those people or to be in one of those places during this historical moment. Examples include (but are not limited to): --Photographs from campus or where you are now finishing the spring semester --Communications (such as emails or announcements) to/from faculty, administrators, coaches, etc. --Personal stories (text, video, or audio) about the uncertainties of being on campus --Recorded interviews with family or close relations with whom you’re spending this time --Social media posts by you, your classmates, or other Springfield College connections �--Video recordings of your community that capture the effects of social distancing Please note that the digital repository ​cannot ​accept physical items (like a bottle of hand sanitizer or a face mask) Information Regardless of what type of item you contribute, you will need to provide information about it when you submit it to the SC COVID-19 repository. The type of information you provide will vary depending on how you classify your item (Text Document, Video, Audio, etc.), and you should fill out ​all​ of the Information boxes to the best of your ability. However, for this assignment, all contributions ​must​ include the following information, which will be graded: --​Title​: if your item is not already titled, you will make up a title. Keep your title ​brief​ and easily recognizable. --​Creator/Author​: who was primarily responsible for the creation or writing of this item? --​Date​: when was this item created? If you cannot determine the date of creation, include the date when you first encountered this item. --​Why you chose this item​: provide a 3-4 sentence explanation of why you chose this item. What might it tell future researchers about the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic? Whose experiences will it help future researchers to understand? Why did you think it was important to preserve this particular item? What specifically within this item would you want somebody to notice or understand? --​Personal information​: your name, email address, name of this class (HIST 106), and instructor’s name (Ian Delahanty). Submitting your Item Once you have filled out all of the information boxes, you are ready to upload and submit your item. Please keep in mind that: --if you are submitting a document, it ​must​ be saved as a PDF file. �--remember to upload your file by clicking the “Choose File” icon at the top of the ​Contribute an Item​ page --at the bottom of the ​Contribute an Item​ page, click the icons labeled “I’m not a robot,” “Publish my contribution on the web,” and “I agree to the Terms and Conditions” [1]​ ​Adapted from Christopher Cantwell, “COVID-19 MKE”: https://liblamp.uwm.edu/omeka/covid19mke/about​ [accessed April 6, 2020]. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

For the most part people did not like quarantine or the meta that came with covid but for me i enjoy every second of it for many reasons. Throw back to march 13th 2020, it was a Friday for me at Reading Memorial High School in Northeast Massachusetts. It was a normal day and the memes of corona spread like wildfire and we all took it as a joke until we found out the school for all of next week was canceled due to “deep cleaning”, one thing led to another and that 1 week break turned out to be something like 13 weeks. Lets fast forward to summer when the majority of the events took place. Near May or June I built my own gym in my garage and it was a bitchin 'setup, over 300+ lbs of weights, a squat and bench rack made out of timber stuck in concrete contained in buckets. It was enough to make a teenage jock cry. To me the best part of the days came in between sets when I would hit my bong and proceed to make the most of my days of doing nothing. I was getting better and enjoying it at the same time. Early summer I also picked up a job at my local grocery store called Market Basket. I stocked shelves in the middle of a pandemic for 3 months then called it quits. I came out with a solid 1500$ and spent nothing and saved it all. As the pandemic started to diminish I started my senior year of highschool through a computer, that lasted for almost 5 months and I only returned to in person learning for the last month of my senior year. What an end to highschool. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
