25 Questions I Have For The University Of Kentucky During COVID-19

For University of Kentucky students, we're beginning week two of online classes since COVID-19 has taken over. I miss my friends, I miss going to class, I even miss my 20 minutes trek going to campus. Going to White Hall right now seems like a luxury - I never thought I'd say that. I didn't realize that I was taking in-person classes so for granted. I would give anything to actually go to class today. Even in the rain.

I know I can't be the only one who has multiple questions regarding time, money, graduation, all the things.

1. When will I graduate?

2. Are there possible formats being discussed for graduation?

3. Has the university thought of a plan to reimburse students for not just classes but also dining?

4. Will any money be refunded?

5. If not, will there be a refund on classes that were already online since costs were raised this year? 

6. Are you regretting raising costs of online classes? 

7. Do you think we will resume classes in August? 

8. How are our professors? We miss them. 

9. Is UK doing anything to support the students who needed meal support? 

10. If so, then what is the plan? 

11. Will there still be online summer course? 

12. Since shutting campus down, are the classroom buildings being sanitized and deep cleaned?

13. Will University Health Services provide any services to students before the semester is over?

14. Is construction still going on?

15. For the incoming freshman, will there be a virtual orientation? 

16. How do you think the incoming freshman will adjust to campus without an orientation?

17. Will there be more sanitary precautions when campus is back up and running?

18. Has there been any new criteria that teachers have been given when instructing online?

19. Does UK think that students will succeed or fail with online courses during this time?

20. Has UK planned any helpful insights on how to succeed in an online course?

21. Has UK given the teachers information on how to help students on succeeding online classes?

22. If classes don't resume in the fall, will Zoom meetings be mandatory?

23. Will exams be monitored more strictly? If so, how?  

24. Will campus visits go on as normal after this is over? 

25. Will there be different sanitary precautions for sports and events?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
