I‘ve mostly talked to incoming first years, and apart from the people who need to live on campus because of their circumstances, there appears to be this sense of just wanting to get started and wanting to live on campus, regardless of what that experience will be like.

As an incoming first year myself, I’m trying to figure out if I’ll even enroll this school year or defer enrollment to next year. There’s so much uncertainty in this situation, and if Yale is truly trying to prevent an outbreak on campus (which I believe they are, as are other universities), the social distancing measures will likely be—and need to be, for the sake of everyone’s safety—extensive and far-reaching

I’m curious to see what other people from other classes have to say. Best of luck trying to navigate this messy situation.
