Well, the in-person learning was suspended to get the virus numbers down, right? Let's see what happens to the numbers when it resumes. ND loyalists can't afford to be smug about this, at least not yet.

hardly. just true facts. Notre Dame put themselves out there nobody else but themselves. Now the golden domers are upset because they can't handle the truth about it. Let me guess you think the molestation by priests were blown out of proportion as well? not all that bad either?

Positivity rate continues to decline. Keep it up ND. Might see a spike after the first game, but hopefully minimal.

Go Irish.

The virus doesn't care if you support ND's efforts or not.... ND will be a public health case study for years to come. I hope they can manage it, but no one knows for certain...

Notre Dame is doing well now by doing the one thing they said they wouldn’t do—lockdown the kids.

Come back in a bit after they resume in person classes and we will see.

Not bad, Notre Dame. They get a lot of credit for sticking this out and trying to manage it, rather than sending kids home (for example, right before the withdrawal deadline).

Perhaps they have figured out that, to beat COVID, we have to collectively care about others.

I think they can do it. Go Irish!

It is silly to pretend Notre dame is doing well. It has 8600 students on campus. In the last two weeks 560 of them tested positive for covid. That’s 6.5%. If Notre Dame were a city of 100,000 you would have 6,500 people testing positive for covid. Those are out of control pandemic numbers.

I don’t want ND (or my kid’s school) to fail at this. At all.

Move those goalposts... dooms day in a week... no, two weeks... no, a week or two after the first football game! Give it a rest.


Not really. This is just the new normal. Constant vigilance and when there are student get togethers esp without masks, be aware that they could be a spike in cases after 2 weeks. Be prepared to hunker down for a bit until cases go down again. Just the way it is going to have to be.

Not doomsday -- just spikes in cases that need to be dealt with. Surge testing when that happens.


Agree completely. I really don't understand why people are so intentional and hopeful about ND failing. No one should be saying gotcha. And as the numbers stand now, the ND community has done a good job of mitigating future risk. I would never wish ill on any college or university trying to serve their population in the manner they see fit. Sad.


I know right? I really think some of these posters are frustrated because their college aged kids are living in their basements doing virtual classes.

Note that 7 day rolling case positivity rate is now 3.7%. ND is winning the battle. Go Irish!! Show them how it's done.


If they stay locked down for the rest of the semester they should be able to pull this off.
