Harvard University is not ruling out the possibility that it might not open its campus again to students until 2021.

The announcement comes as Harvard researchers have said that social distancing measures may be necessary until 2022.

"We are analyzing multiple scenarios, but, in the end, we will be guided by public health considerations—just as we were in deciding on March 10 to send students home and then to implement plans for remote work"

In a message to students on Monday, Harvard University President Lawrence Bacow wrote, "Many of you are concerned about plans for the fall. We are analyzing multiple scenarios, but, in the end, we will be guided by public health considerations—just as we were in deciding on March 10 to send students home and then to implement plans for remote work."

They’ll have to offer the entire class free tuition if they want a full class. All Chinese probably.

“Harvard researchers” live on taxpayer funded grants, not tuition money. Some of them turn around and sell their research paid for by the American people to foreign governments.

100% of the public high schools could do it. We’ll still be paying the teachers to sip mai tais and stream their federally mandated curriculum.

Harvard has the biggest endowment of any college in the USA. They could afford to wait until January 2021 to start the next term.

They don’t need the tuition.
Everyone gets an A anyway.
Keep it closed forever.

I think your jumping the gun opening it up so soon! Better shut Yale, Berkeley, Stanford, and all other liberal lower achievement schools of indoctrination to protect the snowflakes. There just not enough support puppies to go around!

I say the same thing I said when a family member was not admitted to Harvard: “Praise the Lord!”

I don’t see how any college can open until a vaccination is developed. The same goes for any business or sports event will be allowed without social distancing. The key here is vaccination. Without one, the country will stay in lockdown.

Fine. Close it down forever, for all I care, including the Law School.

Just donate tons of hand sanitizer, soap, detergents and novel treatments to Hillsdale while withholding them from the usual suspects.
