A whimsical flock of socially distanced ducks on the Woodland Street pylons serves as inspiration for this week’s photo series.

A livestream faculty concert celebrates Black artistry; an in-person and virtual classroom; vaccination efforts; marshmallow roasts; and ice carved photo stations are just some of the ways the campus and community have found ways to safely gather.
