4. Yeah my goal is to put my students into debt.

JFC, I don’t even know to say to this.

For the record, I am a professor at this university. I honestly don’t know what you all expect us to do. Parents and students whined and complained that they wanted an on campus experience. So they got one. And all it took was a handful of kids to cause this. My students are working their asses off in non-optimal circumstances. Staff and faculty are working our asses off to provide a clean safe learning environment. Staff are terrified they’ll be fired in the midst of this nightmare. Administrators’ hands are tied by boards of governors, which are more often than not political appointees.
The disdain in this country for higher education is appalling. I am grateful I have the privilege of leaving the US soon.
