In this blog post, I'd like to delve into the impacts of COVID-19 on our society and the invaluable lessons it has taught us. Many of my insights have been shaped by my experiences in James A. Godley's "Writing at the Edge of Democracy" class.
Although I was out with COVID-19 last week, I still found ways to safely have fun!
Well, I wasn't expecting it, but it was inevitable.
After having the most amazing fall term at Dartmouth, I was extremely excited to get back on campus for winter. As I got out of the Dartmouth Coach and first stepped on campus I was shocked at how cold it was.
As a student trapped in the pandemic for over a year now, I can vividly see the light at the end of the tunnel as I begin my vaccination process!
Even in a pandemic, I've had opportunities to work in theater this term, and I'm extremely grateful for what it's taught me. (Photo by Russell Chai '24)
Until now, I've attended all my classes at Dartmouth via Zoom. Today marked a milestone for me as I ventured to a socially-distanced classroom for the very first time to attend Global Health & Society (a relevant class given current events!)
Since Dartmouth is on the quarter system, each season feels like a distinctly different chapter of my time here in college. Hanover has truly transformed over the past weeks: from deep shades of red to a white blanket of snow all around.
