29,479 enrolled students and 135 test positive and BOOM shut down. That’s .004! Wow!
“Minor symptoms.” This whole thing is so ridiculous. I’m taking my mask off!

The fact that people paid $30k a semester to take online classes is absolutely crazy to me. Take a year off and go learn something worthwhile.
Yikes.
Clearly they didn't know their student population well.
In 1 week.... na, propaganda. And they will be fine.
OPEN THE SCHOOLS!
Shocking !!!
timothy_faw Decisions to return to school or leave are difficult. Hang on there leadership and students. We wish you well
What did they expect? It was stupid and uninformed to allow anyone on campus
When are y'all going to start reporting the bigger story? Of course the Universities said they would be open so they can get all of that tuition and dorm money. They had no intention of in person classes. It happened to my daughter at UGA two weeks ago!
'Rimer said it seemed that students on campus were practicing social distancing and wearing masks, but 'reports of off-campus behavior showed a different pattern.'' No surprise there!
Life is choices.
Let me remind that age is not an indicator of health, I work along college age or high school graduate aged adults & their nutrition, exercise, sleep level can be questioned. Seeing some over a decade -generation younger than me makes me wonder how some will recover from COVID.

So give back the tuition money.
Well, that must’ve been awkward for UNC leaders...
Colleges and high schools could have in person teaching if the students would act responsibly outside of class but it’s clear they cannot so there really is no option but online.The college kids will still live by campus and will continue to party and get Covid
Here we go!🦠🦠🦠🦠
Fixed it for ya : UNC-CH is now shifting entirely online after collecting tuition payments literally earlier today
Idiots
In other news: Man repeatedly pokes bear with stick, bear eats man.
Cue another angry Trump tweet in 3.2.1......
Suprised ?😳
sinmck 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️. And the images of students having parties on campuses all over will lead to plenty more

Hopes and prayers vs. credible action. Anyone surprised?
👀
BORUSG can’t wait to see yalls schools in this headline in 2 weeks!
This is just the beginning. This generation is so selfish and self-absorbed, they care nothing for the rest of society. Just themselves. Disagree with me? The proof is in the pudding.
I thought only old people caught it. Come on guys! How many most die?
Social distancing and hygiene at the college dorms? Have these people no common sense or experience with dorm life? Having them back on campus is a problem IMO ....Online learning while staying together , partying together and total freedom to drive anywhere..Right.
And so it begins...

High paid morons made the decision for re-opening the school before the pandemic had past. These morons did not make health and safety a priority!
Most kids will probably still stay on campus and mingle, etc. Its college
Who could’ve seen this coming? 😷
I’ve read the didn’t test students, teachers, and staff before they returned to campus. Mistake 1. This isn’t a true test. let’s see how schools that did it right do. Testing, tracing, social distancing.
every other school and university
It’s called common cold. Jesus Christ...
With tuition due tomorrow too
Who could have seen that coming? 🙄
Well isn’t that a surprise. 🤨
