COVID-19 vaccinations will be required of all Susquehanna University students this fall.

The university announced its decision Monday, two months after deciding students would return to campus for in-class instruction and that no remote learning option would be offered.

Getting into college is a lengthy procedure, and on acceptance you drop other options. Then they change the terms. Bucknell U is also mandating vaccine.

If kids choose alternatives to college they will be better off.

World Health Organization Now Says Children Should NOT Be Vaccinated, Also Reports of J&J Vaccine Recalled

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2021/06/21/world-health-organization-now-says-children-should-not-be-vaccinated-also-reports-of-jj-vaccine-recalled/

CTH has received anecdotal and unconfirmed reports the Johnson and Johnson COVID vaccine has been pulled from the market. Three independent reports, from 3 different retail pharmacies, have highlighted instructions to send back the J&J vaccine. If we find out more about this we will let you know ASAP.

Per earlier reporting from media, there was supposed to be an emergency FDA/CDC/NIH meeting this Friday about substantial reports of vaccine side-effects. Perhaps the J&J recall (not yet publicized) is related; unknown. In the interim, The World Health Organization (WHO) is now recommending that children SHOULD NOT get the vaccine: {LINK}

WHO – […] Children should not be vaccinated for the moment. There is not yet enough evidence on the use of vaccines against COVID-19 in children to make recommendations for children to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Children and adolescents tend to have milder disease compared to adults. However, children should continue to have the recommended childhood vaccines. (link)

That’s a pretty profound change in direction from the WHO with little publicity about it. Something seemingly sketchy appears to be going on in the background.

How can colleges and schools require a COVID vaccine when the WHO is now recommending against it?

I really do not see the value of the indoctrination at SU. After 4 years a student and his family would drop north of $200k in tuition. Yeah, there would be some financial aid, but that is still very expensive.

I suspect that since SU is a liberal arts college (exactly, how can they call it a university?) that most people will not object to their vaccine passports.

Considerimg that young people have died, or suffered serious side effects, (heart inflamation exc..), after being injected with the experimental substance (that’s killed or harmed more people than any vaccine in history), to supposedly protect them from something they have a 99.8% chance of surviving, IMO makes this requirement a criminal act.

My daughter went to Susquehanna and majored in creative writing. It was a total waste of money and I told her so at the time. My ex ponied up the dough because I told her I was unwilling to pay for a near worthless degree in a near worthless college. I did go to her graduation. They had a commencement speaker who had some high level job with Hillary Clinton. She almost immediately started spouting a bunch of liberal crap and I walked out.

Bucknell is more prestigious (deserved or not) and pricey (ditto). Being close up, I can assure you it's a lot more liberal than Susquehanna (which is, to quote Stanwyck in Ball of Fire, "red as the Daily Worker and twice as sore.") Lawmakers are considering outlawing the vaccine mandates of colleges here, but that won't save incoming students.

You can learn whatever you need to learn about creative writing, on the internet, totally free of charge.
Creative writing or a thousand other pursuits.
Moreover, there are employers like Walmart that will finance a college degree 100 percent, while paying you to work for them and learn about human behavior without getting shot at. (And not just with a needle!)
Most people my age are in college and/or struggling with educational debt.

True. Although, I am not sure how well known Bucknell is nationally. It is definitely very liberal. One of my friends had a son that went there. Plenty of horror stories.

This is blatantly racist as black people can’t afford to get free vaccination and don’t know how to operate the internet to find out where vaccinations are being offered

The colleges doing this should be prepared to reimburse the students for the remainder if they choose not to return under those conditions. This is coercion to a certain point of view.

Parents who have their children Covid-19 “vaccinated” might be completely ignorand of any actual facts about the vaccine. They are probably brainwashed, propaganda media consumers who trust the propaganda.

Brainwashed, and the parents likewise.
Do whatever they tell you! You need that degree in philosophy!
Now, my mom’s generation...”Forced vaccine? We’d riot and take over the administration building on day 1.”

Isn’t there a vaccination list for schools up thru 12th grade?
They may vary by state and I’m sure the guidelines differ.

Simple. If you want not to be vaccinated more than you want a degree from this university then go somewhere else.
