BobbyPhil1781 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Kick every non-athlete off campus and everyone does remote learning. If the athletes want to play, let them live on campus in a bubble and if not, send them home too. I think this would work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would, but you have to explain why only athletes are staying when schools have been arguing that they aren't different than regular students forever. That's not a question schools want to be answering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This whole situation sucks but oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a question schools want to be answering. I mean I could answer it, whether I believe it or not, and whether you accept it or not. Our job here at [insert university here] is to prepare our students as best we can for adulthood and their future careers. To our varsity athletes we are not just providing and intellectual education but an education in their sport of choice in which many wish to pursue their future careers. Is incumbent on us to provide all of our students with the best education we can in a safe manner. Due to the current health crisis we do not feel we can achieve that with our full student body on campus. This virus is too infectious and too dangerous for any protocols to be able to protect our university community in such large numbers. While we recognize that in person learning is beneficial to many of our student we are confident we can continue to provide a world class education in a remote setting. This, however, is not true for our athletes in their athletic endeavors. In person training, practice, and game play is essential to further their athletic education and best prepare them for the next step. While many will not reach that level we as a university work tirelessly to provide all our students with the best preparation we can to give each and every student the best chance at pursuing the career they want. The decreased size of the students on campus when only athletes are present is such that we feel proper protocols can be implemented to keep those present safe. Accordingly we believe it is in the best interest of all parties involved to allow our athletes on campus while the remainder of our student body remains safely in their homes and taught remotely.

They've already stated they're mandating masks at games so the attendance and situation will probably be less (in terms of people attending) and better than what is going on say, Portland, right now where it's complete madness and there's many w/o masks. So you could really that they "really DGAF" either, right?... b/c they don't pertaining to the spread of the virus.

I can go downtown with no issues and so can anyone as long as you don’t try to run people over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is, they're making people wear masks at games (supposedly) and limiting capacity. That is better than what I've seen in Portland. If you wish to see what I've seen, feel free to PM me bc this isn't a discussion for the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially incoming freshman. Peace!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
