2020 Graduation!

Graduation during Quarantine

First, I’d like to say, I really hope everyone is doing okay during this pandemic. This has been the strangest year yet, it doesn’t even feel real.

For me, when the lock down started to happen, my school was on spring break at the time. Since the pandemic was announced, my college, NKU announced it would extend spring break and continue classes online. So for the last semester of my college career, I was taking all online classes. As the pandemic seemed to get worse, and the lock down time went on for longer, our professors were kind enough to be supportive towards us. While it does suck that I missed out on walking this spring, the ceremony was not the important part of why I went to school, I went to learn. I feel bad that there is now a whole class, 2020 for both high school and college, who are unable to go to senior dances or celebrate achievements they have worked hard to achieve. Our school has offered to let seniors walk in the Fall, but I am unsure if it would be safe to do so.

Now that I have graduated there were a few plans I had for this year that due to the pandemic, I cannot do. This will bleed into my next years’ plans. We’ll see what the future holds.

Be safe out there!
