The problem is universities are run by highly neurotic people.
@jbarro Probably true but it seems like they may also be correctly reading the politics of their environment, i.e. reflecting the preferences of parents (and to a lesser extent faculty). Parents of students at elite colleges aren't exactly known for their lack of neuroticism.
@NateSilver538 oh yes, my concern is this aligns with customer preferences, not that it conflicts with them
@NateSilver538 @jbarro Could smart policy be a selling point? If the spread is happening only off campus, and your all-vaxed student body is only experiencing mild cases, that's a victory. If you want to do more, hand out at home antigen tests like they're free condoms.
@NateSilver538 @jbarro Nate, the policy preferences of the parents of students ought to be completely irrelevant to this situation. I refused to even apply to Amherst when they wanted to make my acceptance contingent upon interviewing my parents, and my parents were equally appalled, I was an adult.
