oh, do college students get a version of the virus that magically cannot be
transmitted to anyone except college students?

Do you know what "quarantine" means?

Ha, as if college students are quarantining effectively.

Everyone I know who lives in college towns or teach at universities in person are really worried.

I'm "really worried" about the exploding national debt, which is arguably a much bigger problem than COVID-19.

So the option is to, what? Send them home to spread it? That's dumb.

So? They're "really worried?" Many people are "really worried" about a lot of things. WTH does that have to do with this discussion?

Don't be an idiot. Of course it can be. But OP's point that UVA is seeing 23 cases a day -- out of 17,000 undergraduate students plus who knows how many more on campus for grad programs - is nothing.

Out of 17,000 students? That's nothing.

College students getting it is not that big a deal. It just isn’t.

I’m guessing the tracker includes off campus students, which is why quarantine housing use is low? They can’t make the off campus students come to quarantine, right?

I’ve been watching this tracker, which is looking at all college campuses.

UVA is is probably going to be the next major covid outbreak. Radford -- the first, and seems to be recovering, JMU -- went on line, Va Tech, still bad, and UVA, the next outbreak.
The most concerning numbers are the number of new cases and the percent of the tests that are positive.

They may be having students isolate in their apartments or suites and only using isolation for dorms with shared bathrooms.
