Also, I think the kids are being *really cautious.* All of my daughter's peer group is taking this very seriously. They want to go back to school in person, and they know this is what it will take. I have not seen that same behavior from the college kids I interact with and teach.
Our granddaughter was very cautious in the beginning when she was at home with her high risk parents. She told me that, though she was missing half of her senior year and all that entails, she wanted to do her part. Now that she is on campus at Clemson University (which is said to have the highest count, perhaps the country) it seems that peer pressure has taken over. I see photos of her on her own and other campuses attending ball games, staying in her friends dorms and apartments and hanging all over various friends while being photographed. No masks. She says most of her 4 roommates and two childhood friends have had COVID but she has not. It's as if she wants to get it over with. She knows she can't come home right now yet the university has ordered students to go and stay home after Thanksgiving. Not sure what she or her parents will do.
