The complete disregard being shown in universities to the health of the people that work there is pretty fucking appalling. The plan that's being foisted on us involves students and staff "self-monitoring" and then putting symptoms into an app so that they can get people into the dorms in the fall. The provost has already made sure that people know that they can be forced back to campus at the whim of the administration. Of course, the people most as risk are the minimum wage janitorial and food service staff and they are the least protected. Admin seems to also be viewing the virus as an opportunity to engage in a little disaster capitalism - pay cuts, furloughs, layoffs, department closures. All this at a school with a president who considers himself a liberal.

Can't even begin to imagine how much worse it is in the K-12 schools.
