“Teaching very stressed students, dealing with technology and coping with the impact of the pandemic on our own lives is definitely causing stress among the faculty I engage with. Common topics include worry about teaching and conducting research effectively in the new landscape, online exhaustion, and compassion fatigue related to constant exposure to other people’s sadness and trauma.”
