The WCC friend group has a beloved tradition that is cherished by many students. Couples would grab a few beers at the bar, find their private classroom, and then spend three hours watching a chick flick. Now, student life is trying to preserve this treasured tradition despite the challenges of the pandemic. Student life has been working hard to make sure that this tradition can continue in some form or another during these unprecedented times. They have been exploring different options for how couples can still enjoy their time together while staying safe and socially distanced. One idea that has been proposed is for couples to meet up virtually instead of in person. This would allow them to watch movies together without having to worry about social distancing guidelines or other safety concerns. Student life also plans on providing resources for couples who are interested in watching movies from home such as streaming services and movie rental websites. Another option being explored is for couples to meet up outdoors with appropriate social distancing measures in place. This could include meeting up at parks or other outdoor locations where they can still watch movies together while staying safe and following guidelines set by local health officials. Student life will be providing guidance on how couples can do this safely so they can still enjoy their time together without putting themselves or others at risk of contracting COVID-19. Overall, student life is committed to preserving this beloved WCC friend group tradition despite the challenges posed by the pandemic. They are exploring different options for how couples can still enjoy their time together while staying safe and socially distant so that everyone can continue to experience this treasured tradition even during these difficult times.
