"I remember being at lift with my teammates the day the university notified their students of the changes that were about to take place due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I remember not knowing if I should go to my 5:30PM class that night. In the coming days, and one by one, events were cancelled, and classes were moved online. Then residence halls and university-owned housing were closing and I was forced to move out of my home and back to Kentucky. I knew being so far from everyone who made me the person I am today would be hard. It has been, but I am grateful for the time I am getting to spend with my family. My thoughts go out to those who are not able to return home and I pray for their safety and resiliency during this time. My thoughts also go out to those whose health has been directly impacted by COVID-19. This situation has rattled our time as students and has changed things for everyone worldwide. I feel peace in knowing that the University of Delaware is still providing services remotely and know that they will always have my back, whether their students are on campus or not. 
So much is changing by the hour and the unknown can be scary. It’s important to remember that while this is an extremely stressful time, that we are united in knowing that this will eventually come to an end. Take a look at all of the good things still around you and try to stay patient and calm during this time. Perhaps this was the universe’s way of telling us to slow down and give thanks to all of the good things we do have in our lives. 
To my fellow seniors: It’s a rough time to be a senior, but it will always be a great day to be a Blue Hen. - delawarerowing’s lorengross11 #studentstoday #bluehensforvever
