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.

Most schools did not have a school administrator attend a super spreader event at the White House hosted by our Covid-denying president. And most schools did not have a huge crowd of students rush the field after a football game to celebrate in close proximity unmasked.

Yes, partying and outbreaks happened a lots of colleges (but not all -- some really did figure it out through a combination of testing and incentivizing safer behavior). But ND was unusually bad in some high profile ways.

Huge crowd rushing the field did not result in spread.

Exactly. The entire student body was tested the days before the game. Anyone who was positive was

in quarantine.

False. Notre Dame mom will you never learn? You do a disservice to the school’s alums every time you try to boost the school. Everyone knows that the “entire” student body was not tested before the game. How would that have even been possible bs k in early November. Only the students who had tested negative were allowed a ticket. Then we had the embarrassing charge onto the field, which caused a national embarrassment for an institution supposedly held to a higher standard. And no, not “everyone who tested positive were in quarantine” because we had the national embarrassment of Fr. Jenkins, who was positive, gabbing it up with Trumpers at the White House. HE wasn’t in quarantine. And after the game the number of cases locally on Nov 23. COViD has
been a sad experience for ND. Stop posting about it - every time you try to boost ND more people learn about howND mismanaged COViD, all the way up the the University’s President.

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

Nah, this is just antivax lunacy and wishful thinking.

Nobody is obligated to attend a certain school. If you don't like their health policies, don't go.

+1 Don't want your student vaccinated makes room for a kid on the waitlist. No one has to go to college. It's a choice.
