<\/p>\nSo we\u2019re back! And to be honest, there are so many emotions we can feel right now. Maybe we\u2019re excited that campus feels a little more like pre-pandemic times. Maybe we\u2019re anxious about continuing to navigate the pandemic and new experiences. Maybe we don\u2019t know how to feel. That\u2019s all OK.<\/p>\n
There are going to be so many new experiences, activities and opportunities this semester. You should feel encouraged to find new ways to explore your personal growth and strengthen connections you value and build new ones you\u2019re eager to create. We all adapted to new ways of doing things last year, and we can do it again this year.<\/p>\n

And still, as this new semester starts, there are probably things about your experience last year that you want to hold on to, like habits, friendships and time for yourself. You should also feel encouraged to keep the experiences you enjoyed and appreciated. A new semester doesn’t mean you have to start all over.<\/p>\n
