Prediction: Serious adverse effects from the vaccine will reverse this decision eventually. And lawsuits. Probably the lawsuits.

These types of responses are juvenile and asinine. Besides that wasn’t it the Roll Tide coach who absolutely continued despite testing positive?

And yet everybody was fine.

Stop the green monster responses.

NP. Green monster about that school? LOL.

Agree and I hope you're right. I take it as a good sign on the East Coast that we have the Brown/Cornell/Northeastern news already

Alabama has been vaccinating since January 25th

Many (most?) schools have.
It's not required though.

So far I think all the ones requiring it (from that list above) are private.

You are speaking about the majority of universities in the US. ND had very strict protocols in place on campus which were followed for the most part. Unfortunately, Indiana and St. Joseph's County did not have the strict lockdowns in place to be able to enforce small groups in off campus residences. Therefore, the partying ensued. Law enforcement in other college locations with stricter guidelines were able to control off campus gatherings.

Brown University
Cornell University
Fort Lewis College
Northeastern University
Nova Southeastern University

Kudos to ND for being on the forefront of both opening (and doing it VERY well overall, not a single death or serious student hospitalization) and mandatory vaccination. At least somewhere a sensible approach still exists.

Go Irish!
