OU students mount efforts to promote COVID-19 safety, mitigation, express disappointment in university handling

After mounting frustration with OU’s response to the pandemic, such as allowing quarantined students to leave their rooms for food while still under quarantine, some students took it upon themselves to promote mitigation efforts through food delivery and social media.  Biology junior Logan Pesina said she co-founded a group chat on GroupMe dedicated to providing information on all things COVID-19. She said the chat — which currently has nearly 700 participants — was created to “spread awareness” about COVID-19-related matters like masking rules on campus, where to receive COVID-19 testing and vaccines, and the difference between provided vaccines.  Pesina said although the chat’s primary role is to promote safe COVID-19 practices, there are “strict rules” in the chat regarding bullying students for violating COVID-19 procedures.
