College students reflect on how COVID-19 has changed campus life during one of the loneliest semesters ever.
by Stephan Bisaha, Kansas News Service
College life at public universities in Kansas had one defining trait last semester: Isolation.
Yes, students returned to campus after the pandemic sent them home early last spring. But many classes remained online. Even in-person classes had desks spread six feet apart. Couches in student unions were literally taped off to keep students apart. Packed football stands and crowded college parties went from college staples to taboo.
With that gloomy, lonely fall semester in the books, four students reflect on how the distance has defined campuses through the pandemic. The interviews have been edited for length and clarity.
