No refunds of tuition will be provided.

Good for Northeastern. Massachusetts didn’t shut down so Logan airport could open up and let the students come in to party.

They expelled th for a gathering of 11 off campus?? Freaking insane. I would be irate.

Rules are rules. If you don’t like them don’t come to campus!

This. Students are adults. They all had to sign saying they would follow the rules, and they didn’t, so they are facing the outlined consequences. I am glad to see someone actually enforcing the rules they set out.

11 is not a crowded gathering.

And when you start your own program that’s the rule you can set. It seems like NE didn’t agree with you and set their own rule.

As I predicted above, the 11 dismissed Northeastern Students were credited back most of their tuition. Today the 7-day Covid positivity rate at NEU was 0.03%

So expelling those kids seems to have worked.

Good summary of how the students ended up being better off.
