My child is a rising senior itching to get back to her friends and the school she loves. In some ways, I think she will he safer at school than at home. [b]Her college is requiring negative tests for all students, facukty and staff,[/b] and is imposing stringent rules. No off-campus travel, everyone lives and works in pods, no varsity sports, no parties. Anyone violating the rules (caught outside their dorm room without a mask, for example) will be asked to go home. My child is confident she will be safe if everyone follows the rules. It's in a rural location with few cases. If there's an outbreak, the school has strict isolation plans, and will send everyone home if they have to. Not every college can do this, though. There is literally nothing kids can walk to off campus aside from farms and woods. [/quote]

Will you feel less positive about this plan if it becomes harder to get test results back?  People locally are saying 7-9 days to get test results, which seems too long for the college's purposes.

I agree that the rest of the plan sounds doable.  Small, rural campus might be able to curtail an outbreak.[/quote]
