Online classes have been the bane of manu SSU students’ existence ever since the university had to transition to fully remote learning in March 2020. Almost two years later, classes have resumed partially in person, which has students both elated and worried, as conditions are not as they were before COVID-19. The transition was abrupt for many, and as a result, the stress of this new mode of learning is taking a mental toll on SSU’s students and faculty.

COVID-19 has changed many aspects of normal life, one of the main things being how we interpret signs of illness. In the midst of the pandemic, it’s hard to decide whether something like a runny nose is cause for a COVID test or if it can just be attributed to allergy season. COVID’s sometimes subtle symptom list makes it especially difficult to differentiate between the virus and normal ailments, such as the common cold, the flu, or seasonal allergies. Understanding the differences between these common illnesses and COVID-19 is essential to everyone’s safety.

Currently, masks are required indoors at SSU and outdoors if social distancing isn’t possible.
