Noel\u2019s parents surprised him by decorating his bedroom with Goucher swag. College from home certainly wasn\u2019t his first choice, but having reminders of Goucher helps, he says. All of his classes are live through Zoom, which means that he doesn\u2019t have to rush to class when he wakes up late. When it\u2019s safe to return to campus, Noel, like many others, is excited to meet with his friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3616\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3616\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3616\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"The room of Paige McSavaney '24\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Paige-McSavaney-flipped_cropped-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3616\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong><span style=\"color: #49c0b6\">Paige McSavaney \u201924<\/span><\/strong> is the only one of her high school friends who is going to college virtually.

McSavaney has settled into a routine; she starts every day with a bagel with berry cream cheese and a vanilla latte before her Eastern Time Zone classes start\u2014and she\u2019s happy to say she\u2019s now become a morning person.

Tate co-teaches the intro course with faculty members George Greco and Lisa Gulian. Their teaching team went to campus at the start of the semester to prerecord labs for the students. It\u2019s a flipped classroom setting, so the students watch the lectures before class, and then solve problems and learn how to process the material once they\u2019re together. Tate says that teaching over Zoom is a fine balance between engaging the students and not overwhelming them. He finds comfort in knowing we\u2019re all trying to figure out how to live and work best in this moment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3618\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3618\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3618\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"The home office of Kendyl Walker\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-scaled.jpg 1706w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Kendyl-Walker-Office-picture-edit-cropped-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3618\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kendyl Walker set up her desk in her living room, near the best window in the house. That works well until direct sunlight hits it\u2014then she has to adjust her webcam. The pre-major academic advisor meets with students to assist their transitions to college; she sends them resources and helps them figure out their goals. Walker has created a routine to help her work from home. She reads a little before the day starts, and cooks something quick for lunch while watching segments from <em>Last Week Tonight with John Oliver<\/em>. She also listens to music while she writes advising notes, but it doesn\u2019t make up for the way she misses seeing everyone walking down Van Meter Highway.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3619\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3619\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3619\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Tina Caretti at home with Buxton\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/magazine\/files\/2020\/10\/Tina-Caretti-with-Buxton_cropped-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3619\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Like Walker, Tina Caretti is a pre-major academic advisor. Her workdays can be unpredictable, so she has a number of tricks to keep her grounded. Namely: coffee and a puppy. Caretti and her husband adopted Buxton, now 10 months old, from a rescue organization in April, and he has a lot of energy to burn off. It\u2019s been nice to have an excuse to get outside for a bit; Caretti works from her deck whenever it\u2019s warm enough. Walking in her neighborhood more has shown her there are new people to meet and amazing things to see. But for a quick pick-me-up, nothing helps quite like texting a friend.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Snapshots of the Goucher community at home\u2014Chapin
