State university students last year were so brazen in denying restrictions that entire frat houses had to go under house arrest to quarantine them. There were outbreaks all around campus and in businesses frequented by students. The semester went online like three weeks in, solely so the admins could collect in-person tuition fees.
This year it's worse. While people are required to wear masks in class, there's almost no sense of precaution outside of it. Restaurants, bars, groceries, gas stations along arterial interstates. Looks like that university has a full football season scheduled.
edit: Christ, in Florida too. I wouldn't go outside if I lived in Florida right now.
I would say that atleast at my (very blue) state university, the issue was the greek system, not the average student. Greek life through the worst of covid was having mulitiple hundred person+ parties that all were reported to the university and no action was taken.
These are the people who The Villages then hires as low level staff because they can be exploited more easily. It's like the story of Icarus getting drunk, building 1.5 wings, and breaking his neck on a trashcan after trying to climb onto his roof. The sun is just so much hotter down there.
I know so many people going to disney and the other theme parks. Most of these same people were making fun of the anti-lockdown protesters, completely oblivious to the fact that they've been taking advantage of the fact that those same asshole protesters won.

Me too. It's a gigantic lab for producing covid variants.
