<p>Hello Lucia:<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for sending these questions. They were discussed in the meeting this morning. It is my understanding that:</p>
<p> <br>
</p>
<p>1) There is an option for graduate students to leave Tang without penalty but wait for the formal notice from administration<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>2) They are working on creating a site/hotline to centralize communications. Access information will likely be in the next campus wide message.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Dawn,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for the email. Understanding there would be a lot of ongoing changes taking place around school and many uncertainties ahead, I am simply wondering for people who decide to pack up and check out the residence hall, are they still
going to be charged for rent? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition, I am wondering if Tang will put up something like a Webex Q&A to centralize communication around changes or other additional information we need to be aware of in terms of staying on campus. It’s a pure suggestion and I know
the housing department must have a lot on the table already so not trying to stress anyone out.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you very much for your feedback.</p>

role in slowing the spread of this disease. As at any residential college, our residence halls and FSILGs put students in close quarters. What’s more, the intense and free-flowing collaboration MIT is known for comes with close contact and shared spaces, equipment
and supplies. These characteristics, which we cherish in normal times, increase the risk of Covid-19 spreading on our campus.</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt; line-height:150%; font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif; color:black"></span></p>
