... we have a problem. This past Monday, classes, that are now on-line, ran into a major problem. What was the problem? Zoom. Yes, Zoom, which provides videotelephony, for millions during this pandemic, especially students with in-person classes either paused, suspended, or canceled, went down around the globe. But how did our students and their paused in-person classes fare? Was it a summer snow day with classes canceled, both in-person and now on-line, or was it business as usual, pandemic style. Let him from the Stedsmen...
John DiLella, Steds junior and Californian by way of New Jersey, said, "My classes, somehow, were not affected by Zoom going down. In fact, I was in the middle of class when the crash supposedly took place and nothing happened. However, watching the frantic emails roll in from panicked professors running around like decapitated chickens was sheer comedy the highlight of my day."

Henry Glunz, Steds sophomore and resident Pennsylvanian, said, "I wasn't affected, but the Zoom outage was actually a resounding success, as my roommate, Daniel, did not have his least favorite class, circuits analysis. As a result, he was able to enjoy a calm and intellectually stimulating breakfast with me instead."
