<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello MIT Lindy Hop Society!</div><div><br></div><div>This week MIT
kicked off an in-person fall semester with all undergraduates, grad
students, staff, and faculty invited back to campus. Things look and
feel a bit different now -- masks are required indoors, all events
require contact-tracing information to be collected, all MIT personnel
must be on Covid Pass which tracks our twice-weekly tests and daily
health attestations, and visitors are welcome, but must be escorted
through campus. We are thrilled to be back in our labs, but are still
trying to navigate these new policies and what it will mean for the MIT
LHS this semester. <b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b>For now, we will not be holding any dances in
these first weeks of the semester, as we anticipate the first round of
testing statistics and updates to covid policies to come swiftly and
potentially change frequently. We will have a more detailed update for
you in approximately two weeks regarding our dance status for the rest of the semester.</b><br></div><div><br></div><div>In
the meantime, we'd love to get your feedback on how you would want us
to proceed this semester if we were to go forward with dances. Interested in lessons and socials that focus
on solo dances? Would you prefer us to skip the socials completely and
just do structured lessons? Have an idea for how to set-up our dance
space this semester? Are you concerned about etiquette and hygiene
at our dance and have suggestions on how to improve it? <a href="https://forms.gle/bBheypmv3a1UKWcLA" target="_blank">Please let us know your thoughts on this form</a> (long link: <a href="https://forms.gle/bBheypmv3a1UKWcLA" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/bBheypmv3a1UKWcLA</a>) so we can keep track of your feedback.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks everyone for your continued patience. We are <i>so close</i> to being back and swinging again; hopefully we'll see you soon!</div><div><br></div><div>Kindly,</div><div>Your MIT LHS Officers</div><div><a href="mailto:lindy-society-officers@mit.edu">lindy-society-officers@mit.edu</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>PS If you wish to be unsubscribed, let us know, or visit <a href="http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/lindy-society" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/lindy-society</a>; we understand that your situation may have changed and might want a break from our spam.
