This is Andrew Thurman, I’ll be giving a brief reflection on how this semester is going. This semester is definitely much different than any semester we’ve seen in the past. I actually feel like I have more assignments and homework than in previous semesters when it was more normal. I think professors know that video lectures are not quite a replacement for in person lectures, so they assign more reading material to make sure we understand the content better. I definitely is challenging, but I have seen a lot of interesting\/new ideas come out of this. Agronomy club has followed all the regulations and still manages to get great food for all our in person meetings. We also had a great zoom call with several company representatives to prepare us for the virtual Ag career fair. Having half of our classes actually allows us to be more flexible as well. I actually was able to finish my work early and go home on Thursday to help my family harvest, which was very useful to them. I would enjoy having the usual breaks, but overall everyone is trying to make the best of this new environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
