[Tang-Residents] No Town Hall Mtg in Tang

[Dawn Anderson]

Hi Tishara:?


There is an option to terminate your lease early.  Look for the messages the administration is sending.  If not already, they will send out details on how to do so or contact grad housing.

Hi Dawn,

Thank you so much for all the efforts you and the administration has been making to ensure our health and safety.

I only had one question. I am contemplating moving off campus and working remotely. Is there an option of ending my lease early?

Best,

?Hello Tang Residents:


It was suggested that we coordinate a town hall meeting in Tang to answer and collect questions to submit to administration but that would counter the social distancing we are trying to encourage, especially in the 24th floor lounge.  So I am going to ask that all questions be forwarded to me via email so that I can either answer or pass on to administration.  Things to know:


1) Graduate students DO NOT have to leave Tang because they live in apartments and because many are tied to ongoing work and projects in labs.  There is no talk of that changing in the foreseeable future but remember this is a new situation and we are all learning as we go.


2)  No overnight guests for now.


3)  If you are coughing or exhibiting symptoms, please make sure you have connected with MIT medical, and reassure your roommates that you have done so.


4)  This website should be helpful  http://web.mit.edu/covid19/


I sent out a poster with activity suggestions (reattaching here) and offered to loan out yoga mats for those interested in online yoga classes (your choice).  Let me know if you are interested.  I have a few mats from past classes taught here in Tang.  If you have suggestions for other activities in the midst of social distancing, do share!!!  This is an interesting community ?challenge that we must meet together.


Also, let me know if you have personal/offline questions or concerns.


Stay Healthy Tang,

Dawn
