Yep, why do this when they don't even know what the numbers will look like in 60 days?

All they are is indoctrination centers. Reeee

Smart administrations will wait and see what happens in the next few weeks.

How pissed would you be if you were scheduled to graduate in the fall?

maybe the prep involved getting ready for a school year at an institution is pretty involved
that being said, I think they are crazy

Going to be fun watching them reverse course hard when they realize everything is almost completely open by August

But you're a University of Arkansas fan? How does that logic work?

Good
Less indoctrination
Many Universities should follow suit.
Actually make it 100% total closure forever.

I just don't understand rushing to cancel things so far in advance. This could be largely a non issue by mid June and they'd have two months to prepare for the fall semester, assuming they have semesters.

Will be too late by then. This has really reached peak insanity. Maybe schools like Columbia can get away with something like this. But for many schools (including BU) this will cause lasting damage. Who is going to go there now? They risk losing most of an entire class. Are they going to retain all of the faculty?

It's hard for me to imagine being any more pissed off than I already am, but I guess I would somehow manage to be exactly that.

Prayers can and will be answered.
About time to drain the swamp that is the higher education system.
Bring back trade schools and get the opinionated professors out of our kids heads
