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

Some were probably infected before they came.

Students and parents screwed up by catching COVID and the rest of the families who stayed safe are now punished. It sucks but they have no option but to do this.

You remember back in late February when that one hospital in Italy discovered they had a couple cases, so they evacuated the entire hospital instead of locking it down? Remember how that literally destroyed their nation? That’s exactly what colleges are doing.

Colleges are a great test bed for herd immunity. Keep them there.

My sons school has 1000 cases with no changes.

Our friends dropped off their freshman DD 4 days ago

JMU is screwing up

two weeks ago

500 cases in a week. They really blew it by not testing kids before they arrived.

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say we don’t know what the f*ck we’re doing.

After consultation with the Virginia Department of Health, James Madison University will transition to primarily online learning, with some hybrid instruction for accreditation and licensure requirements, graduate research, and specialized upper-class courses requiring equipment and space, through the month of September. Courses currently offered online will continue to be online without any break in instruction. Classes will take place as scheduled for the remainder of this week unless students are otherwise notified by their faculty. In-person classes will transition online no later than this coming Monday, Sept. 7. Additionally, in an effort to reduce the number of people on campus, residents will be asked to return home by Sept. 7 unless they seek an exemption to stay.
