(AP) University of Maine students are back in classrooms in large numbers for the first time since the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic.
Students are required to be vaccinated and about 93% of residential hall students and 69% of non-residential students have verified that they’ve been vaccinated, the Bangor Daily News reported.
Students were elated to be back and for classes to resume Monday.
“All I’ve known is online classes,” said Anya Lam Zimet, a sophomore engineering physics major. “It actually does feel like I’m in college now.”
