To combat feelings of isolation and help make undergraduate students aware of the campus resources that are available to them, the Penn State College of Education Student Council (ESC) has started weekly virtual educational/networking programs called S.O.A.R. (Student Opportunities, Advocacy and Resources) and Restore. We have a consistent group of people who log on to join and eat dinner together, said ESC President Taylor Young. We’ve had some students who’ve had to quarantine, and they said that it’s been helpful to see, ‘Ok, I don’t have to eat alone in my room while I’m quarantining in my room for two weeks just have human connection. https://news.psu.edu//education-students-connect-during-pa
