Rutgers cancels all on campus events for May, meaning no spring game

Boooooo!

 

[Jim_from_RU]

This whole situation just totally sucks.

 

[DJ Spanky]

Pretty much expected. Small sacrifice given what we could potentially be dealing with.

No commencement. We were looking forward to my daughters graduation.

China lied, people died.

Everyone do their part with staying away from public places, stay home, next two weeks, we can really put a dent in the number of cases and get back to normal quicker

The new normal will be panic, hysteria, and system wide shut downs for every new strain of the flu or virus that appears. If we shut down the country for less than 100 deaths, imagine what the response will be for something like the swine flu which caused 12k deaths. How about the meningitis outbreak on the Princeton campus, they didn't stop classes and send kids home, now they almost have to shut down campuses for any outbreak. This is a one way door we have entered my friends, no going back.

This is not a global pandemic

Sheep like Numbers don't value their freedom.

Lots of truth in this post.

I figured this was coming when the CDC went out eight weeks on the large gathering restrictions. I just hope they figure out some sort of alternative commencement in the future. All that work for the graduates... has to be a way to do something.

Serious question--couldn't they have at least a virtual commencement for each school broadcast on YouTube? At least each graduate would be "part" of ceremony and have their name announced as part of a ceremony. Yeah, not quite the same, but at least it is something instead of nothing.

You really need to take a look at the projections for mortality if the steps being taken to decrease exposure were not taken - at minimum of a half million deaths in US from Covid and could easily be more than a million.

Why not? It's the least they can do. We are merging some of the Lutheran Churches in our Synod District and having a live service on You Tube tomorrow morning.
