Happy First Day of Classes, Tulane Students!

Today, on the first day of classes for the 2020 fall semester, we want to wish all the Tulane students an amazing year!

What are your expectations for this fall? Do you plan to return to campus or take online classes? How are you coping with the current situation? Let us know in the comments below!

My S is living on campus and attending mostly in person classes. Well, until the hurricanes came along! it’s distance learning for a couple days due to that. Covid test results have been good so far but this week’s numbers aren’t out yet.

The students have been on campus for about a month. My son reports that most of his friends returned to New Orleans. His classes are in person and not hybrid courses. Clubs and club recruiting are a bit different. The students still meet in small groups to dine together or play sports. He reports that things are a little different - but the students are adjusting to the changes. He much prefers his in-person classes to zoom.

The students mask up and have either weekly or bi-weekly test depending if you are off or on campus, respectively. The biggest gripes are when students have to quarantine as they were close contacts of a positive student. They are making it work!
