Whether or not schools will reopen in the fall is a hot topic right now. Students need to learn and remote learning isn’t optimal. Kids also need socialization to build valuable social skills, friendships, and self-esteem. Remote learning is especially difficult in a college setting, where relationship building is critical for future business and social network advantages. Careers are built in college, and keeping students out is likely to cause difficulties later.

There are no good answers for how COVID-19 pandemic will shape college in the coming months.
