When a college requires mask wearing in the park or closes the park, altogether it discourages safe activities.

I am not against being safe, but you can (and will) catch covid on spring break in a bar, hotel room or party bus. Sitting on Miami Beach however, no matter how crowded is much less .,likely., (Same reason BLM protests were never vectors in and of themselves. They were outdoors. )
