College Move-In Day at Brown University | Senior Year

I move back into college for my last semester at Brown University. The time has really flown by! Move in day was quite different this time around with stringent COVID-19 safety regulations (testing every 3-4 days, quiet period where we can't see other people for 14 days, etc). Hope you all are having a restful break / are starting off the semester smoothly!
