Dear Ms. Marty Pants,
I live off campus and have a pet dog. Can I bring her to class?
Sincerely, Dog Mom
Dear Dog Mom,
As long as your little pup wears a mask and adheres to social distancing guidelines, I don’t see why not!
Dear Ms. Marty Pants,
I’m a commuter, and I usually stay on campus in between my classes. A lot of the seating has been taken away so people won’t gather in groups, and I get that, but I’m having trouble finding a place to wait and study. What should I do?
Sincerely, Commuting Student
Dear Commuting Student,
Just bring a blanket and sit outside on the quad! I know it’s going to get colder soon, but think of it as a challenge to test your survival skills. You could even pretend you’re on a reality show like “Naked and Afraid,” but with clothes on!
Dear Ms. Marty Pants,
I keep smiling at people but nobody can tell with my mask on. How can I let people know I’m not glaring them down?
Sincerely, Secretly Smiling Student
Dear Secretly Smiling Student,
2020 is the year of the smize, or smiling with your eyes. It’s so easy, you don’t even have to move your mouth! Just squint like someone stepped on the back of your shoe, or like you forgot your glasses and are trying to read the whiteboard from the back of the room. Your facial expression may be a little confused or angry, but nobody will be able to tell! Sincerely, Ms. Marty Pants
