Any college that believes they can go to in-person class and survive is a great little test case for what we've been watching. This epidemic loves a crowded room, loves a social setting, and loves it when people feel bullet-proof enough not to take much for precautions. All things that will be constant at schools and colleges.

Yeah I think schools resuming is going to be a disaster. It's really as if school administrators across the country had a collective "oh shite" moment a month ago when they realized things weren't in a good spot to return to in person classes and have been flying by the seat of their pants ever since. It should serve as a damning indictment of the administrative side of education in this country, but it probably won't for most people.

I don't think the classroom will be nearly as big of a problem as dormitory living. There's no way you can cram that many people in such a small living space and not expect any communicable disease to just run through the building like wildfire. You can at least control social distancing and capacity somewhat in a classroom with smaller classes, larger lecture halls, etc. In a dorm, there's going to be close quarters no matter what.
