[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids from top colleges (most are tesidential) are home[/quote]

What does this mean? Why in the world would you specify that kids from "top" colleges are home? My kid is at what is considered a "top" college, but he lived on campus so the dorms are closed. He had no choice. However, he has some friends who live off-campus and some are still in their off-campus apartment. Being at a top college has nothing to do with any of this. Really strange post.[/quote]

Ivy plus... residential schools with kids living in campus for 4 years. [/quote]

Really depends.  Cornell has a lot of off campus housing.  Princeton, not so much.

I think whether or not kids who had off campus apartments came home or stayed really depends on where/when spring break happened and schools were closed.  In other words, if kids were already off campus for break, they stayed home.  If they were on campus when schools closed they may have stayed.  Somewhat due to travel concerns or if the situation was worse at home.

For example, in my son's apartment, we insisted he come home.  Some of his friends from Washington State and NYC stayed on campus
