Traditional college sports and activities
"Although many colleges will be open this fall, it's possible that not all activities may resume," Broer says, particularly given financial constraints and the likely inability to have as many spectators (if any) at big games. "At sporting events, spectators will be spaced out in stadiums, if they're allowed to attend at all." Many decisions haven't yet been made for athletic programs or music and theater programs, he adds.
But regardless, things will likely be different. "From social events and student clubs to sports and even orientation, students may find themselves meeting in smaller groups or continuing to connect with each other in virtual spaces," Venable says. "The college experience is changing in ways that may be both disappointing and inconvenient for students. What I hope they can see, however, is their school's focus on keeping everyone as safe as possible, while also providing the opportunity for classes to continue so they can make progress toward their degree."
