BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Â鶹ÊÓƵֱ²¥ College students started making their way back to their campus in Bethlehem early Wednesday morning, but with a pandemic still in the picture, a lot at the college has changed.

"It's going to be interesting," said Ryan Miller, a freshman. "It looks different, but I'm excited."

"It's new challenges, but I'm up for the challenge," said Kekeli Klu, a freshman.

Even move-in day looked drastically different. For starters, Â鶹ÊÓƵֱ²¥ didn't schedule a move-in day. It scheduled move-in days to spread students and families apart.

"Typically, all of our new students arrive in one morning, which takes us four hours," said Liz Yates, associate dean of students. "This year, it's going to take about three days."
