Stanford will launch a complete redesign of undergraduate residential life this fall, adopting a neighborhood model ahead of welcoming the entire undergraduate population back to campus for the first time since campus closures in March 2020. 
The decision has elicited mixed feelings of concern, optimism, excitement and disappointment from juniors and seniors.
The new plan was announced on Feb. 4, around a month after Stanford canceled plans to bring frosh and sophomores back to campus for the winter quarter. The University still plans to bring juniors and seniors on-sight for spring quarter. 
Some students said that they were pleased with the timing of the announcement, while others were skeptical. Gilare Zada ’22 said that it came at an “opportune time” and that she was happy that the University announced the plan well in advance of fall quarter.  ....

Alici is from Turkey, but she spent her fall quarter on Stanford’s campus due to uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, just weeks into the seven-week winter break that began on Nov. 21, international students like Alici face the unique decision of whether to return to their home countries and risk spreading the coronavirus, or to spend the holiday season on campus, away from home and family. ....
