While taking online classes and adapting to life with COVID-19 restrictions, some students are celebrating their 21st birthdays differently than they imagined.
Students who got quarantined in UT’s off-campus COVID-19 isolation center dish out the details of their stay, including unappetizing, one-hour breaks and noisy neighbors.
These groups help students find a sense of belonging at UT, which has historically had a predominantly white student body. This fall, cultural organizations are doing this virtually.
After COVID-19 shutdowns, local clothing boutiques that rely on student foot traffic, such as Longhorn Fashions and Miss Behavin, were forced to adapt.
Crowd-surfing, headbanging and masses of sweaty bodies jumping up and down used to be the essence of attending a concert. Now, fans must stay away from fellow audience members.
This year, interactions have been almost entirely virtual, and RAs are also responsible for enforcing social distancing, mask-wearing and breaking up gatherings.
