Many students from the start of the pandemic have had to turn to governmental assistance from the CARES act to help pay for their tuition or college-related expenses. This item showcases one of the most prominent government relief programs that were available to STMu students and college students nationwide. This funding was essential for many college-aged students who may not have qualified for the stimulus package or unemployment but who were facing the negative financial effects of the pandemic. -

Online Shopping
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, I have not been able to leave my house and go to the store. Personally, I love to go shopping and walk around various malls and outlet centers. But, due to COVID-19, I’ve been forced to shop elsewhere. Because I haven’t been visiting traditional stores, I have been purchasing a lot more stuff online. I usually shop online occasionally, but now I’m shopping on online stores almost every day. Since I’ve been away from school, my number of online purchases has grown. In the past two weeks, I have purchased makeup, makeup brushes, a jewelry box, cleaning supplies for my Pandora bracelet, printed photos, and a photo album. Needless to say, I’ve been buying quite a lot. Shopping online can be dangerous because you can’t see the money directly leaving your account and you can forget how much you have really spent. The stress of COVID-19 and having to finish my college semester at home has pushed me to shop more. COVID-19 has not only been dangerous to everyone’s health, but also to their wallets.
