As the University of Richmond continues to remain in the Red Phase for the foreseeable future, our first semester of the 2020 - 2021 school year is hardly recognizable in comparison to the place we left last March. Without the ability to do many of the the things that once filled our college days - whether it was group study sessions in the Basement of the library, the communal Netflix parties among friends, crammed into one small dorm room, or simply venturing off campus for a meal in Carytown - it is easy to become dismayed over prospects of this semester. However, in the same way that UR has vowed to try and keep us safe in the midst of this pandemic, they have also done their best to keep us engaged and active within the Spider community. So, with that being said, here is a compilation of possible (socially-distanced) activities that are being offered on campus this month.
