As spring break finally comes to an end, stretching longer than just the typical week-long break, the town of Alva is slowly filling back up to normal capacity.
With Northwestern’s campus being open and classes meeting in-person, people have formed their own opinions on how things should be during the pandemic.
Tierney Cook, a junior majoring in business administration said: “I am excited to be back on campus, to go back to a normal routine schedule and to be able to see new and old faces. I don’t mind the masks as much because I look at it that Northwestern is looking out for our safety, but still is eager to be back to normal.”
Dawson Maxwell, a junior majoring in criminal justice, said he is excited to be back on campus despite having to wear a mask.
“The mask is going to take some time to get used to, but it’s a small price to pay to be able to be back on campus,” he said.
Carson Hannaford is a senior in her final semester for English education. She is a student teacher at Alva High School. She said she is eager to stay in the classroom.
“It’s nice to see everyone on campus again, and to be able to be back in the classroom rather than online,” she said. “I think the college made a good call to make masks mandatory in order for us to be able to stay on campus.”
