Not sure how the testing is happening after they get on campus. I think it may be happening through contact tracing . I'll ask when I get a chance. We had to prove they were negative when they got there. I have heard that some of these kids are displaying symptoms but am not privy to treatment methods.

Is really damn tough when parents are paying between 75 to 80K a year for their kids to go to Tulane and the Univ of Miami and they are giving them "Hybrid" classes where most the classes are online and the one's in-person are a JOKE. At the level of high school. The bloodsuckers of the Universities, don't want to lower tuition. Those kids are not being prepared for Med or Law school. I told my daughter to take a gap year!

Seeing Google come out with their own training program for high-income jobs, I hope this resonates and that this is the beginning of the end of university education as we know it today.

Tulane is going to have to dive into the pile of money they have in reserve and then rebuild in 2021 and beyond.

It's sad to see this happening. The virus was front page news 5-6 months ago...

Nobody pays sticker at Tulane - unless your family is rich AF and doesn't care.
