[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Newsflash: there is no such thing as a “permanent record” in college. What do think they do? Write “COVID violation” on their transcript that future employers and grad schools see? Even for underage alcohol violations, there is no consequence. You are worrying for no reason!

And PS, flouting stupid COVID restrictions, especially when someone is low risk and young, is to be expected and commended. You should be proud of your DC. [/quote]

The kid was infected when he went AWOL, that's not exactly good citizen conduct. But I doubt they will give a harsh punishment.[/quote]

Free country. [/quote]

We don't have a constitutional right to infect others. Our rights stop when they impact other citizens. You can't drive 100 mph, you can't shoot a gun anywhere you want, you can't assault others, you can't steal from others. Good citizenship keeps the society 'free'.

And you don’t have a constitutional right to control my child. See how that works?[/quote]

But the school DOES have a right to control your child's behavior, but establishing rules. That's so OTHERS feel comfortable going to school. If you don't like the rules, keep your kid out.[/quote]

Nope. If you are so afraid of COVID, then keep your student out. See how that works? And anyway, my student is over 18 and makes decisions for himself. [/quote]

The school made the rules. Your kid agreed to them or they wouldn't be in school. Are you really saying adults get to decide how to behave, and that rules don't matter to people over 18? I guess you are not in a country club or any other type of organized human activity?[/quote]
