Students paying to live on campus at the University of Michigan may need to find a hotel room to isolate should they test positive for COVID-19, according to guidance on the school’s website.

Students who test positive for the virus will be required to leave their dorms during their isolation period, which could last for five days, university Chief Health Officer Robert D. Ernst said in a message to the school community Friday.

In the message, "Campus COVID-19 resources and related guidance," Ernst included various preparations and prevention methods against transmission of the virus.

The guidance also encouraged students to "make an isolation plan" ahead of time to help "provide peace of mind."

Room and board on the Ann Arbor campus will increase $685 for students living in a double room in the residence halls, from the 2022-23 cost of $13,171 annually to $13,856 annually in 2023-24. That means costs for tuition and those who live with a roommate on the Ann Arbor campus will add up to $31,084 annually. Detroit News. Jun 15, 2023

Undergraduate Housing includes an additional fee of $75 fee for Residential Computing.

UM increases tuition 2.9% for students on Ann Arbor campus.

So they’re paying both dorm fee/rent and hotel cost. Pass.

Yet another indicator that “higher education” is nothing more than advanced indoctrination. And yet, still, people willingly hand over their future earnings as indentured servants and slaves of their liberal masters.

“Diversity is our strength,” but only for those who submit to our ideology.

What about students who test positive for coronavirus 229E or OC43?

Oh wait….

We don’t test people with runny noses for them.

Well at least coach Harbaugh should be safe, he’s got two more games to serve on his suspension.

Hey, you wanna pay for it, I’m game. But unless you want to foot the bill, I’m staying in the dorm I’m overpaying for.

Notice how they aren’t issuing refunds for those kids who are dumb enough to do so.

You’ll notice it’s for “the greater good”

So the new class being taught at U of M is “HOW TO BE A SHEEP.”

Can someone tell me how these simple test kits can detect EVERY COVID variant, but the Vax/Booster has to be variant specific.

My bet is that these test kits hit positive on COVID, Flu, RSV and EVERY virus in circulation. Election is near, start the FEAR PORN!!!!

Moral of the story here: Don’t get tested. Or fake a test. Your option.

My son is a freshman at Michigan. Just told him to never take a Covid test. His dorm is massive, 1,107 students. Of course he just went to their first home game last Saturday. 114,000 people crammed in like sardines. The 340th home game in a row with more that 100,000 in attendance. Yeah good luck getting them to follow Covid rules.

Thats the thing...don’t test.

Never understood that...rushing to shove a swab up your nose for a mostly false result.

Words gone out and the Universities are starting to do their part. They are going for it.

I will never test again without a compelling reason. Mrs jimfree is with me. She has been a basically compliant girl all her life but does not tolerate stupid.
