Study Abroad program which costs $36K and locks you in your hotel room in Boston. If you come out of your room, they keep your money and send you home.

Remind me to sign up for this next year.

The students were enrolled in a study abroad program, but because of the coronavirus pandemic, “abroad” became the Westin Hotel in downtown Boston, about a mile from campus, according to the release.

Those universities will do anything for a buck. How does the Westin Hotel experience even begin to equate to the experience abroad. They should have asked for a discount in the first place.

Its by design and intended to put fear into the other students. No different then prosecutors going after people who protect themselves and their property from BLM. Need to organize, reset and go after these people.

What were campus monitors doing at a Westin Hotel about a mile from campus.

Somebody snitched on these students.

Back in the 60’s the pukes of the day rioted against the universities. I think they should start that again.

Thi could be a fantastic class action lawsuit

Perhaps the students will learn something and get paid for it.

Bait and switch by the university, which monitors them to find some offense to dismiss them ad keep 400 grand for doing nothing.

Lawsuit? Why? Let their commie parents pay for their spawn's malfeasance. Might teach them a lesson in freedom.

Northeastern U:

On multiple occasions for the past week, students in the N.U.in Program have been formally notified that they must practice physical distancing, avoid crowds, and wear masks in the presence of other people. The students were required to acknowledge that they had reviewed the program handbook, which included details of the COVID-19 requirements that are meant to keep everyone safe.

“As outlined in the Guide to Residence Hall Living, during COVID-19, per Northeastern University and Massachusetts regulations and guidelines, there will be no guests, visitors, or additional occupants allowed in residential assigned bed spaces during this time; this includes neighbors within your residential building,” reads a passage from page 14 of the N.U.in handbook. All students who reside in university housing receive the Guide to Residence Hall Living at the start of the semester.

The policies have been laid out for N.U.in students at mandatory floor meetings as students have been moving into the Westin over the past week. The students were told that an N.U.in Boston Student Union Room was being made available at the Westin starting on Friday, with enough room to accommodate 16 socially-distanced people wearing masks.

Whether it was in teeny tiny print or not, whether or not they were spoken to and not just presented with the rules, they were informed in advance. Students had to acknowledge that they read the handbook.

Oh wait--they WERE verbally told: "The policies have been laid out for N.U.in students at mandatory floor meetings as students have been moving into the Westin over the past week." Maybe they didn't attend the, uh, mandatory meetings. Supposedly got the handbooks. NU could have a solid case.

Expecting college students in their late teens-early 20s to cower in isolation in fear of a disease that they have statistically ZERO chance of dying or becoming seriously ill from is idiocy.

This ridiculous scamdemic has gone on long enough.
