What to do about Spring Break 2021? Let’s not repeat 2020!

Looks like colleges are restructuring Spring Breaks for 2021. After last year’s spikes in COVID-19, many colleges have eliminated spring break entirely. Instead, some are starting semesters/quarters earlier or later. Others are spreading the 5 days (for spring break) over several weeks giving days off mid week or 3-day weekends. I think 3-day weekends may still entice college students to take a long weekend to splurge in a more intense and condensed version of their normal spring break excursions.
With just 3 months to the start of the new term in college, looks like many are continuing the same offerings they committed to for fall term. If they’re online, on campus, or hybrid, they’ll most likely continue the same for spring. So much is still unknown about how this pandemic will play out this fall and winter.

One thing we do know it that we need to stop spreading the coronavirus in order to move past this and recover. I think we should all shelter in place and quarantine as much as possible so this pandemic doesn’t drag on for months – or even years.
