A final fall on campus | MIT Technology Review

MIT seniors were granted three months on campus this fall, but they will spend the spring semester studying remotely. Alex Meredith '21 describes his time: "When weeks quarantining at home with my parents and younger brothers stretched into months, all I wanted was one last chance to see my friends in person, to say goodbye from six feet apart before we graduated and scattered across the country and the world for good. My time on campus this year may be short, but I'm incredibly glad that I got my chance. Moreover, the limits on this time have given me a strong sense of clarity--I can't turn down an invitation to lunch when there are so few lunches left."
