Who Are These Masked People? Going From Virtual to In-Person
On the first day of Fall term 2021, it rained torrentially. Oolies new and old scrambled through the slick PSU streets to find the large lecture hall that housed our first meeting. There were all the common indicators of a hectic first day: the dash to find the right rooms and buildings, new faces, new syllabi, and new procedures to learn.

In some regards, we were as fresh as the first-years in the program.
