Title A name given to the resource History 106 Class Description An account of the resource This collection includes items submitted by students in Prof. Ian Delahanty's class HIST 106: The Civil War to Modern America. The class was taught in the spring 2020 semester; three sections of the class totaling 66 students contributed to this collection. Students were given an assignment in which they were asked 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.

Title A name given to the resource Going Home Early Description An account of the resource This is a screenshot of an email I received from Springfield College regarding the dates and times for students to move out of their dorms. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Springfield College Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource March 18, 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 chose this item to show how Springfield College, along with other colleges all around the U.S., required their students to move out of their dorms early due to the COVID-19 outbreak. 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.
