"One issue on many students' minds is whether there will still be graduation. The school has not made a final decision on that."

For what that diploma costs, parents and kids want to party hearty.

I've seen Bucknell up close and imho they should worry more about the alcohol epidemic on their hands. That and other substances.

Sounds like Vanderbilt and Belmont are doing the same.

I have posted that we have a friend who has basically established and excellent on line MBA with a major university, and how he is more than ready to do the same for
K-12 and then any college.

Teacher unions and janitor/school bus unions will be hit the hardest as Americans will realize there is no need for 4 walls and being taxed into poverty for excellent schooling.

makes sense- i mean what we know about the chinese flu is people under the age of 21 are the ones least effected never mind campus life is its own sort of quarantine...these students will lock themselves in their home and not mingle on the outside... /sarc

Nearby Bloomsburg U is extending spring break, suspending travel and many events...due to coronavirus, despite not having a single case of it as of this moment.
Meanwhile you need a BAC (blood alcohol content) of .04 just to get into Bloom U, and your chances of being killed by a drunken student are far more likely than dying of a Chinese flu.

All of those Western PA. colleges are pure drunken cities of debauchery.

They won't be able to put this toothpaste back into the tube. This "remote education" protocol is being presented as "as good as" in-class education. If not, all paying students are being cheated. Since remote classes are as good as in-person classes, why continue to pay for the upkeep of campus infrastructure? Why not forego all in-person instruction? Wouldn't costs be drastically lower if all engaged in remote learning?

Lose the campus, cut tuition and come into the 21st century.
