Text Box explaining COVID 19 and Education:
"Most colleges and universities have shut down following spring break (March 16, 2020). Most students were not able to return to campus post spring break to retrieve their personal belongings such as clothes and school books. Online classes have been administered for most colleges in order to continue the curriculum. Some colleges are keeping their options open and are hoping to return students to campus on April 14, 2020 however some colleges have already decided that the remainder of the semester will be completed through online classes at home. Not only have colleges shut down but public school districts have also closed for an initial 3 weeks beginning March 16, 2020. Cancelling schools is causing issues for working parents who are either physically attending their workplace or are attempting to work from home. Their children are now home and will need parental support to continue their curriculum. Childcare has become an increasing issue."

I was on the community college campus I work at for meetings on how i will teach the remainder of the semester online. No students have been on campus since before Spring Break. On Monday it was supposed to be a return to our normal class schedule, but instead it was empty.
The only people on campus were some faculty and staff. There are normally college students walking to classes, or sitting on benches. Some eat lunch on the tables, or read. It was sad to see the campus so quiet and empty. No lectures were heard walking by classroom. No students sitting in the sitting area waiting for their next class.
Nothing is normal right now and we are doing our best to keep going. My concern is mostly for the students with limited resources. Will all their hard work for half the semester be wasted?
