Ian Kim, Sophomore: I don’t really have any opinions on it. I think it’s fine because COVID has gotten better. But, personally, I’m going to keep my mask in because I think there is still a risk. So I think keeping my mask on is the right move, but I dont think it’s the wrong decision for the school to lift the mask mandate.”
