This is the first time America has had to deal with this type of situation in these trying times, which means no knows exactly what to do. In order to suppress the virus, schools have gone online, but at what cost? According to many college students, it's inconvenient and borderline impossible to give your best work. Suddenly having to study in a different environment with unreliable internet and constant distractions are just not reasonable.  Many students had to leave years worth of research behind when returning home to another state. This is a huge shift when everything from mental and physical health, to housing and food supply to the family is uncertain, simply causes far too much stress, resulting in numerous students around the country to petition for pass-fail grading and more leniency with assignments.
