That’s a decision for the college student and their parents to make. Is Ivy League something we should all be aspiring to? I don’t think so. I think it’s mostly a waste of money, aside from the contacts you make. And those contacts only help for specific niches like politics.

From an educational perspective, 2 years at a community college and 2 years at a state school will get you everything the Ivy League does at about 1/50th the price. But hey, if you really want to go to an Ivy League school, then be prepared to pay 50 times more money and get your COVID-19 shot.

It’s a business selling a service and all of them have pros and cons. Make your choice; vote with your dollars. Let the free market decide who’s right and who’s wrong. If nobody shows up to Harvard in the fall because of a COVID-19 vaccine requirement, Harvard will drop the requirement. If kids start dropping dead at the University of Maine because of COVID-19 and people withdraw in mass numbers, chance are they’ll be adding a requirement. Let the market decide the winners. Participate in the market.

2a now you’re just being ridiculous. These are being increasingly mandated across the board for all ages, and not all people and families are in a situation where they have that many options.
