In this week’s installment of Masked & Answered, Caimin Xi, a mechanical engineering major from Hawthorn Woods, Illinois, discusses the importance of working together to remain on campus: “I feel very, very lucky to have been able to remain on campus last semester and still be on campus this semester. I know it’s rare because I have many friends back home who have had to do college all online, and I see how different their experiences are. As a freshman, being on campus has been a major part of my experience so far. Knowing how hard Vanderbilt has tried to make it work with the testing and the regulations, I know they have done a lot, so now it’s up to us to do our little part of it. This is a community and we all need to do what we can to pull through.” - Caimin Xi, #VU2024 #Vandygram #AnchorDownStepUp
