[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why my DD applied to colleges in the south[/quote]

Why?

Because the virus only attacks in states that aren't in the south? Wow, all those reports about hospitals closing in some southern states due to covid-caused overcrowding must have been false!

Or because you assume colleges in the south are...not very good at taking a pandemic seriously? So you can be assured your kid will go to class in person even if a virus is tearing through campus?

Either way, you're pretty ignorant and allowed your child to continue that tradition. Congrats. [/quote]

DP.  Also glad my DC is only applying in the South.

Because the schools in the South actually believed in and followed science. Interesting that you’re not citing data about Covid hospitalizations and severe illness (or lack thereof) on college campuses in the South. That would be because the schools did just fine, and avoided the epidemic of depression on northern campuses that locked students in their rooms.  Not to mention that they actually educated their students. The students were better off on campus, socializing with kids their own age, who were all at low risk for Covid, rather than hanging out at home, spreading the virus to their elders.

Interesting how, now that Covid is rampant in the NE and DC, Covid spread is no longer caused by moral failure (And don’t say “but Omicron!” — Delta is still around in the North, and that is the cause of most of the hospitalizations).  [/quote]
