Rook Arrival Day 2020
I contacted Norwich. Word from the VP of Student Affairs is that there will be no ceremonies this year due to Covid-19. NU is still considering more than one RA day to further limit contact. Consider Rook Arrival day to be a "drop-off" at the dorm. Parents will pull up to the dorm, stay in their cars, and say goodbye. He advised that parents of Norwich fall athletes say their goodbyes when dropping sons and daughters off on the reporting day for their respective sports.
While unfortunate, this seems like a very good move to protect the surrounding community from unnecessary contact with an influx of people traveling from areas that have been hit harder by the virus than Vermont.
