Seems that they might infect others if they leave campus.
Imagine that.
“Top White House officials rang the alarm bell during a call with the nation’s governors on Monday, pleading with them to advise college presidents in their states to keep COVID-infected students on campus or risk another major outbreak.
...
Speaking to governors on the call Monday, Vice President Mike Pence echoed Birx’s admonition that infected students remain isolated on campus for fear that asymptomatic transmission could impact wider populations.
“In general, we want to encourage, even when you have test positivity on campuses, we want to encourage universities to have students remain on or near campus and minimize the potential exposure to the larger community,” said Pence. “We really believe—and I spoke to a university president just the other day—in suspending classes for a few weeks, have people study in their rooms, and... that kind of isolation.”
I have had something else in mind for them based on crimes against humanity.
We have a college in town, and they are quarantining students on campus if they live on campus normally. The odd thing is that if these students use their parents address as their home address, they are counted as a positive case in the county where the parents live, and this seems so "off" to me as it does not reflect how many are truly in the county and have active cases. Very few cases here so far, and they have been in class for a couple of weeks.
I still have a lot of doubts about asymptomatic cases spreading it anyway, add the high rate of inaccuracy in the testing.......... Notice how the narrative keeps changing from the CDC as we get closer to "normal", they pull something else out of their............. With deaths FROM Covid 19, we are now below 10,000 cases, so................

I have a lot of doubt when opinions are presented as facts with no supporting evidence.
Wise decision. Hopefully colleges and universities have enough functioning brain cells to realize they should not send the virus back to grandma and grandpa. Keep it contained where it does little damage.

This is smart as they should stay around young people that aren't at risk at all. Of course the mainstream media will focus on that one young person that died, all you need to do is look at statistics. The death rate of this thing now is almost within normal parameters. In other words, COVID isn't a factor in our normal death rate. Look at the charts. This thing is over. The Democrats want to hang onto it until the election of course.
These are adults, not kids. College is strictly voluntary. The colleges have all offered online options. Bottom line, ADULTS chose to put themselves in a group living situation. They do need to stay at college if infected, they do not need to take CoVid home to older adults.
Besides, isn’t it a good idea to expose these young healthy adults to CoVid so they will no longer present a risk as a symptomatic carrier when they do go home? Get it over with and there will be less people to pass it around.
