MEET Andrea, member of the College 2023 Class. She shares a little bit about her experience in college right now

“I am actually currently on campus, but I am under quarantine once again. When we were attending in-person classes just a few days ago, however, I was able to interact with my professors and peers more than I do online on Zoom. There is just more of a deeper connection being able to communicate with one another in person rather than on a screen.”
