We need to stand together and focus on what is important right now - staying safe. Many types of work, especially in groups are difficult to do without face to face meetings, and the understandable worries students have regarding what to do and others leaving is enough to occupy everybody's time. Lets focus on rest and being there for ourselves and our loved ones.

Deadlines for assignments just add to the immense amount of stress and worry people are already experiencing with what is going on. Right now we need to work together to create a situation that is healthy for everyone (assignments can also be demanding for professors!)

LUC students often have to work together, which is hard if your group mates are panicking or not even present in the building.

I could not agree more with this petition. Mental and physical health must be the priority. Right now we are busy dealing with this situation, and deadlines just add on the great amount of stress and worry.

Suspending classes is good for physical health, suspending assignment deadline is good for mental health

A lot of our assigments are group projects which require a lot of communication and preferably meetings IRL. This is, however, harder to communicate nowadays, given that a lot of students leave or have already left the AVB residency.

Both individual and group work is being particularly exhausting in these recent days. When meeting other students 80% of the conversation topics are regarding the current Corona virus outbreak and it is clear that It’s on everyone’s mind. Personally, the crisis has caused me a lot of mental and emotional distress and general exhaustion. I’m still trying to figure out what to do next and whether to fly home, it is just absurd that I have to worry about academic deadlines at the same time.

I think that this is a very important issue. Us students are just trying to reach the board in the most constructive and organized way as possible. We need dialogue.
