The COVID-19 pandemic has made it a year like no other on the UW–Madison campus, but the seasons continue to change as always. The first snowfall of the year on Tuesday gave campus a wintery look, although in some places only the seagulls were around to enjoy it. Instruction will be going fully remote after the Thanksgiving break.
