    1. Grad school can be stressful enough during normal times, but it's likely worse during a global pandemic. You may be (or know) someone who has lost their job, tested positive for COVID-19, been hospitalized, or taken on new family responsibilities. Not only this, but there are other ongoing events that are constant reminders of inequalities and injustices you may be facing.I am fully committed to making sure that you learn everything you were hoping to learn from this class! Although formal deadlines are an important part of giving structure to a class, my late policy and willingness to make accommodations are pretty generous even during normal times, and if this pandemic (or anything else) is turning your life upside down, I'm willing to be as flexible as you need me to be. I have also adjusted the weekly activities for the course so that some are optional. I think all of the activities are worth completing, but this isn't the semester to be picky about that. If you feel like you're behind, not understanding everything, or just plain stressed, do not suffer in silence!I'm pretty quick to respond to email and more than happy to meet with you

      Thanks for this! These are crazy times.
