The 78 probably won't be unenrolled. They will either vaxx or get tested. They just need a nudge from the University to get them to act.


They’ve already been unenrolled. They must reapply.

I'm sure they'll receive full refunds.

It’s only 50% refund

These are students who did not follow the protocols - either by not opting out or showing proof of the vaccine/illness

You sure?

According to LSU Media Relations Director Ernie Ballard, the university has started to unenroll students


"Starting" includes contacting the students first.

They are going to be reasonable with these students unless the students respond unreasonably.

81% of the students at LSU are vaxxed.

Wasn’t it like 20% a couple of months ago. No way in hell 81% of mostly 18-22 year olds are vaccinated.

No, staying with the theme of what is happening to the students they should be terminated, no?

Not sure - but it’s available on campus and there are signs to get it all over the place - I’m surprised they don’t jab the students as they walk into the union

Plus, even if you are on the fence, i suspect most students will just get vaxxed and not have to deal with the random testing.

It's not even a decision of principle to them, but rather one of least resistance.

Or it is bc 18-21 yr old are at almost no risk to Covid but are getting vaccinated bc they don’t want the hassle otherwise

None of this matters when you realize that our own government doesn't have to follow the rules that they've been instrumental in implementing.

Why are you eating popcorn? You realize how many minimum wage workers are employed by LSU? It’s the same reason at the hospital out overall numbers lay low

Management and doctors vaccinated at over a 90% clip. Environmental services, phone operators, very low rate of vaccination

It’s really nothing to disagree with. Regardless of where you stand on the vaccine, lower income and education lean more towards being unvaxxed

That’s just the facts

Uh, actually you do unless you submit yourself to a nasal swab.

Why subject yourself to this just in order to go to school? Are all other aspects of life requiring this too?

You know it was legal to own slaves in Louisiana right? They were just following the rules too. Along with every other shitty, civil rights infringement in the history of the world, it's always justified somehow.

Uh, you do if you want to attend LSU. Were you not reading?


I'm disappointed it was only 78. Kids these days, including mine, are sheep that believe anything they see on FB or Instagram. Morons that can't think for themselves or are too worried about what other people think to object to obvious bullshite.
