Quarantine Chronicles

How Hofstra Journalism students are taking on this pandemic.

The novel coronavirus, covid-19, upended life with school and work suspensions and unprecedented shelter-in-place orders around the world. These are the personal accounts from students at Hofstra University who left their campus, reflecting on the loss of their school year, discovering or re-discovering hobbies as they return home, and navigating uncertain times with family and friends.
