Leaders of colleges are issuing simple demands to students to curtail the spread of the coronavirus on campus: Wear masks, and rein in your partying

The messaging comes as outbreaks continue to pop up at schools around the country as students return to campus, leading several this week to halt on-campus instruction.

If your college leaders are this stupid, find a better college.

This always felt like a con by the schools. Get kids back on campus so you can cash the tuition and housing checks, then say it’s unsafe and send everyone home, spreading the virus back to their parents residence. The idea of enforcing social distancing at a frat house is silly

WSJ = CCP RUNNING DOG Take an early look at The Wall Street Journal = become CCP running dog early. As WSJ.

Yeah right !!!!!

“Let us charge outrageous tuition, fees, housing and board prices, just don’t have any real experiences while you’re here.” - all Universities. Scam central.

Tell them to stop partying? This sounds like a headline from the Onion.

Yeah, that'll work. Tell the grass to stop growing, too.

Listen to what you said. “Simple demands”. Don’t you see a problem with that?

Pay 4-year college prices for a community college experience. Makes sense.

Get an education

Poor colleges and universities. Victimized by students w/ no social consciousness. nails it: listen to your masters. Give us more money and don't talk back.

So ask them why have students on campus where there can be no social gatherings, A college right of passage, when technology allows you to provide an education online. Oh right it would be cheaper 💁🏾‍♀️ more greed and they will see them kids in a coffin for a 💵

... and half the kids will fail miserably, wrecking it for all.

UM in MN closing a extra 2 weeks

more cases = more antibodies Don't they teach this at college anymore?

Part of the pure idiocy of American higher education is the insistence by students of the importance of the 'college experience', which has zero to do with academics. For college kids that 'experience' is all about partying to include all associated bad behavior. Paying to party!

Ha. The second part 😂

Oh that’s all?

If suppression efforts are going to fail anyway (and they seem to be failing everywhere), undertaking fanatical efforts to prevent the young and healthy from 'getting' a disease that doesn't usually even make them sick keeps the truly vulnerable in danger for longer.

Hey about colleges rein in their tuition cost!

That’s funny.

Allow them to stay on campus! Don’t push them out to the cities to use gyms!!

Good luck with that. In two weeks, the spike will be over and we can all stop freaking out about kids testing positive for a disease that does not make them feel sick or represent a meaningful risk to their lives.

Yea, we adults did not do our job to contain this so instead of accepting responsibility we are going to blame our kids

Are demands ever simple?

Anyone thinking this will work isn't qualified to educate people.

🤣😂🤣Not going to happen.

If you have to tell them to stop partying it's because they're too damn stupid to do otherwise. I wouldn't expect this to change their minds.

Fools think it’s cool to not wear a mask 🤦🏽‍♂️

Should masks be mandatory? (Please follow, retweet, and like!) click4mypolls

“Simple” for an adult. College kids, not so much.

Yeah that won’t work.Partiers are in it for maximum effect

cmbutler And it’s not going to work

UmmmKay

Mr Gershwin left a message: “Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly....”

Stop partying? This undisciplined, entitled lot? Good luck with that!

Students may want to consider an online university. We used to be the best-kept secret in higher education, but with 50% of our students coming to us from word-of-mouth referrals, the secret is getting out.

Most of these kids go to college for the partying. Good fucking luck with that.

And pay your tuition up front, just in case!

Lower tuition. See how ridiculous this sounds?

thats like asking a dog not to sniff ass

Herd immunity. Get on with it already.

Colleges are asking students to live in jail-like conditions so they can charge full tuition.

Sounds like a plot for Animal House II

Let it circulate in this age group. Herd immunity is the only solution.

Sensible. If nothing else, colleges should encourage students to be sensible.

All of which only keeps the virus around longer rather than burning out in the ultra low-risk population. You've all gone mad.
