Dear readers,

For Washington University seniors, graduation is a time to say goodbye. To friends, to campus and to college life in general. But this year, that life has been put on pause. In honor of today’s in-person commencement ceremony, Student Life spoke to members of the class of 2021 about what it’s like to graduate college in a pandemic. Hear their stories here, and make sure to check out last year’s video on the class of 2020. 

Congratulations, seniors!
