New Tulane students arrive for Move-in 2021

It may have felt like summer outside, but the fall semester was getting underway as Tulane students returned to campus. On Sunday, Aug. 15, first-year students began to move into their residence halls. The process, which is usually smooth for students and parents alike, was further streamlined this year by having students ship their belongings to campus beforehand, pre-select move-in time slots, and use barcodes to check in. The result was an efficient flow of students into the residence halls. On campus, quads are once again free for foot traffic and spontaneous studying, the dining halls are busy with customers, and the sounds of student voices can be heard everywhere. Move-in continues for returning students through Aug. 21.
