With architecture, things are very dependent on an in person environment with a studio,” Bordenick said. “We were completely online, which was pretty hard I would say. Spencer Bordenick of The American Institute of Architecture Students reflected on the organization’s past year. “We had all of our races last season canceled, just due to the fact that we race against multiple other colleges,” Fischer said.Įven though those races were canceled they were still able to do a week long training course, and avalanche training through close work with the university and ensuring COVID-19 testing of club members. Katie Fischer, VP of UI Ski Club, found the club was limited last year due to the pandemic. With the large number of attendants, many clubs expressed their positive outlook for the coming semester in terms of membership and being able to do group activities again. The event kicked off with a performance by the UI Marching Band and Cheerleaders on the Tower Lawn to the mass of spectators until they marched southward towards the Memorial Gym. While masks are required in on campus buildings, this does not dictate a face-covering for outdoor events. Current UI policy does not dictate that students are required to be vaccinated, though they are unable to due to an executive order signed by Gov.
This is in sharp contrast to the rapid increase of the average number of daily new COVID-19 cases in the county, more than doubling in the last month. Many of these students were unmasked brushing shoulder to shoulder with others. Tightly packed they peered, chatted and signed up to different representatives of clubs, and organizations. Hundreds of students packed Sixth Street between Line and Rayburn Street, also flowing onto the Tower Lawn. Booths filled the street, representing clubs, organizations and businesses. This past Saturday, Palousafest welcomed students back to University of Idaho campus with food and games.
