Abstract
Classes are now virtual. Students have returned home, missing friends and finding studying difficult. Whether a graduate student or an undergrad, they are probably feeling anxious, sad and uncertain. This poster will identify student stresses related to social isolation and ways educators can be proactive in helping students cope. Due to Covid-19 rates, educators are acknowledging that a permanent return to campus is unlikely. Some campuses have chosen to return to on-campus courses, others have not. Campuses are going back online due to increasing Covid-19 numbers. Educators need to be aware of student stresses and be equipped to help.
