n Thursday, Wright State University welcomed back thousands of students during “Operation Move-In.”
Students like Nadia Shockley said emotions were high as she prepared to leave her family for the first time.
“I’m excited and nervous,” Shockley, who is an incoming freshman, said.
With campus’ new safety guidelines during the coronavirus pandemic, only two people are allowed to help students move in August 20 – August 23. They are to arrive during their scheduled date and time slot, and they have just 30 minutes to return their carts.
“We want to minimize the personal contact. We’re not going to have as many students helping carry as well. We’re expecting the families to carry their own things in because we don’t want to spread anything,” said Dan Bertsos, the director of residence life and housing at Wright State.
