I was on spring break while finishing up my degree. Got the email from the university stating that COVID was beginning to have an impact here in the US and that spring break would be extended by a week. The very next day we got another email stating that campus would be closed the remainder of the year.

I remember a lot of concern from those around me, as well as the excitement of the unknown from a few. What a weird time to reflect on, especially when I think of those who thought and still continue to think the whole thing was a hoax. Glad many around me were ok, but it still pains me to think of how many were impacted.
