Bennington College is hosting a pop-up course this summer—Understanding and Responding to COVID-19, Quarantine, and Crisis: An Interdisciplinary Course—in which members of the Bennington faculty and others look at the unfolding COVID-19 crisis across disciplines, from anthropology to mathematical modeling to poetry to film.
