Daniel Quintero, age 23, has found a lot of positives within the COVID-19 pandemic. He was optimistic during the interview and emphasized the value he's found living on a farm. "I think if this hadn't happened, I wouldn't be able to be living on a farm and go back to the land, to get connected to nature. Although I was born in a city, I've really enjoyed farm life and learning how to care for a plant. Being in nature has taught me a lot. Also, given that I'm underloading at Carleton, I've had a lot of time to really take in what I'm learning by living at a farm. Although I'm sad to not have a graduation or senior spring, I've still managed to get meaningful things out of this."
Brooklyne Hurley, age 22, has found COVID-19 to cause a lot of reflection for her. When asked how she was entertaining herself, she said "I've mostly just been painting." The piece featured above was inspired by Brooklyne wondering "what would life be like after people. What we've done here isn't just going to go away. These plastics won't ever leave and the Earth has to deal with that, not us."
