Yeah, I agree, and I think this ends any chance of football, again.  I don't see how they avoid it, the Spread ...

The rise in cases was expected.

How many of them are actually ill?  How many are suffering?

But, UNC certainly did what was expected.  Pretend you're going to have in-person classes to get the tuition payments in the bank, then cancel in-person classes and provide an unbelievably expensive and unacceptably poor online-only experience.  They duped their students (and their parents) perfectly.  So congrats to them, I guess.

I think if we are going to group young people together, we need to either live with the consequences.  Make the university the bubble.

We could all stop pretending football is truly important?

I saw an SI writer float this idea. On one hand, it makes sense. On another, it was doing what a lot of folks want.

If you aren't canceling now, there seem to be two alternatives. 
1. Have not brought anyone back to start.
2. Solider on for another few weeks. 

Folks mostly not excited with what's happening now wouldn't have been excited with 1. I suppose the answer would be to just keep giving it the old college try longer, but is there a time range for the spike? Three or four weeks?

... Maybe not. 

A campus without students is more like a bubble. Those kids are well overseen and getting higher end medical care. Could work.

Wisconsin (state of) is looking really good on the (known) numbers. The 7 day averaged peaked on 7/26, with 930 cases per day. Right now, it's at 733 cases per day.

The state has had 66K known cases and 1039 deaths (1.6%). 

If we multiply that number of known cases by 10, the death rate is 0.16%.
