My son goes to UW in Seattle. They have made all classes this week, and the finals next week, on-line only. This isn't a huge problem but they also canceled all face-to-face office hours with the profs. He is trying to finish up a big project (he's in CS) and needs some help so that's kind of inconvenient.

Don't know what will happen next quarter. It depends on the spread, I guess. He has just the one quarter to go to graduate so the timing of this really sucks.

Also, when he was in high school, he was part of the Robotics class that competed in the First Robotics competitions around the nation (they made it to Worlds finals in St Louis his senior year). Even after he graduated, we have continued to support the program because it's really good for the kids. Unfortunately, they just canceled all competitions in the PNW. It really sucks for the kids because they have been working their butts off all year to get ready and now won't be able to compete.
