    Is ‘let the most vulnerable students die’ really a trend now for elite college presidents? “Colleges and universities must be able to safely handle the possibility of infection on campus while maintaining the continuity of their core academic functions.”https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/26/opinion/coronavirus-colleges-universities.html …

        This Presidential statement from Purdue is one of cruelest things I’ve read in the last 6 weeks: “Even a phenomenon as menacing as COVID-19 is one of the inevitable risks of life.” https://www.purdue.edu/president/messages/campus-community/2020/2004-fall-message.php …

        It is not encouraging to me that the statement from Brown’s President is slightly less gross than the statement from Purdue’s President. They’ll both kill people. And they both flagrantly model this as policy for other institutions. https://twitter.com/jessifer/status/1253298528018972673?s=21 …https://twitter.com/Jessifer/status/1253298528018972673 …

        I’m worried other institutions will see this as a model. People at and around Purdue will die. But so will people at and around every other institution that enacts something similar, even if less extreme. This will likely happen whether or not Purdue retracts or changes course.

        It's a definite take, apparently. Little mention of staff or faculty. Or how to disinfect classrooms between classes.pic.twitter.com/rokQ5p4Cwv

        Or the locals. Or the fact that the university doesn’t have excess dorm space for quarantine. But sure, let’s have the folks working on Thayer Street get sick so the tuition checks can clear.

        Can we entertain the notion that there’s a lot wrong with higher education as we know it and it needs to “crumble” (it already has, for too many people) and be completely rebuilt, equitably?

        Bet you know this already, but not just elite schools. President of Purdue wrote "All data to date tell us that the COVID-19 virus, while it transmits rapidly in this age group [<35], poses close to zero lethal threat to them." https://www.purdue.edu/president/messages/campus-community/2020/2004-fall-message.php …

        Yes. It’s the logical (not moral or ethical, mind you) end of the neoliberal market-driven takeover of higher education. The same ideology that had folks saying that higher risk people should be willing to put their lives at risk for the betterment of the economy a few weeks back

        I’m pained by how exclusively money-driven decisions are now being made in the open without any shame whatsoever. You *know* these high level administrators are insulated from the risk they subject students and staff to

        What I don’t understand is how institutions that are normally so risk averse could possibly go for this. One exposure, let alone one death, and they will be buried in lawsuits almost instantly.

        Especially because they’ve made their decisions so emphatically public.
