What *some* colleges are doing isn't so far from a bait-and-switch. Lay out implausible conditions under which college could commence w/o COVID spread. Get tuition on premise of an in-person experience. Blame students when the conditions are inevitably violated. Then go online.
A few weeks ago, I wrote that Syracuse University's draconian punishments would not deter its student from socializing.
Within days of arriving on campus, hundreds of students had a giant party.
It's time to stop pretending that college students will socially distance.
