They should keep students on campus and try to keep infection rate down; not send them home to infect the community[/quote]

yeah, isn't that how Notre Dame flattened their curve?[/quote]

Notre Dame will continue to do well until they open back up, then cases will slowly begin to rise again. 
Have they learned nothing since March? [/quote]

I am still waiting on your prediction to come true. Not yet. Are you still hoping?[/quote]

Not the PP you're waiting for, but the cases might be slowly rising again after several days of <3 following lockdown they are back to >5 on multiple days. This might not sound as bad as their outbreak, but other similar colleges try to control things again after those numbers to prevent further spread.  W&M (which is a similar size as ND) had <10 cases total since they started and they are doing a complete re-testing of everyone as a precaution post Labor day to due a rise in the local community which of course will put their numbers up once they do, but that's a pretty significant commitment when there are currently so few positive cases comparatively.[/quote]
