BLAMING THE STUDENTS, SAYING

PEOPLE ARE BEING, YOU KNOW, NOT

IT DOESN'T SEEM THE UNIVERSITY

IS TAKING ON ANY

RESPONSIBILITY.

A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE DON'T

NECESSARILY UNDERSTAND THAT.

THE FIRST DAY OF VIRTUAL

CLASSES FOR UNDERGRADUATE

STUDENTS AS THEY MADE THE

DECISION LAST WEEK TO GO FULLY
