Ivy League Won't Play Any Sports in 2020

I have a feeling this is going to trickle down and will affect all levels especially now that we have c already seen one professional sports team withdraw from competition due to a Corona virus outbreak (Dallas FC of the MLS) and many of the MLB teams halting their practices to await test results due to sporadic positive tests...so exactly what will CIF do on July 20???
 
Try having your parents shell out 50K to attend Harvard. Then you find out that Harvard is only offering online courses this fall.

To add insult to injury, all foreign students must leave the country.
 
I have no issue sending students from other countries home if the only way to being taught is distance learning?
The computer has no boundaries, they can do the same from their home country and the comforts of their home?

crazy different time zones, maybe no access to a laptop or computer, maybe not a quiet area to study, not reliable WiFi, or no WiFi at all....probably some of the reasons they come to study here
 
Now in pro soccer a second team has withdrawn from competition so that makes two pro treats withdrawing within a week. Nashville now jouns Dallas as the second team to withdraw from the MLS tournament due to COVID 19. So how much more can we handle right now.

It was reported today that not only did the Ohio High School Athletic Association put a halt to Fall workouts, they have now canceled all Fall Sports for Fall 2020. Texas and Georgia are rumored to go down the same path with recent positive COVID tests among participants in sumner workouts. I am skeptical of the future of Fall Sports but we must be safe when it comes to events like these

Wifi is a luxury. Many of countries are not afforded such. I am not bothered by that as much as his accusation of the foreign students ruined the UC system. Without them the student body might not be as full as you thought and they PAY. I bet his clothes say made in china though.

My point is that is NOT why they are coming here for an education.......I am not aware of many countries that dont have colleges....they come here for a reason but those are not them.....

not many countries have the excellent universities that we are blessed with here especially when it comes to research universities so if you want to learn from the best, network with the best and be on the cutting edge of science, technology and engineering research this is where you need to be

This is the exact ignorant statement from someone that has likely never been outside of North America.

It is clear that our education system isn't that great, judging by your post being written in all lowercase and no periods.

SMH

YOU MUST BE REAL FUN AT PARTIES!!!!!
BUT HOW ABOUT KAREN ABOVE WHO BLAMED THE DEMISE OF THE UC SYSTEM ON CHINESE STUDENTS? IGNANT OR NAH?
 
But you’re partially correct
Agree, although I should have stated the context for my argument.

Most Americans believe the best of everything is here. At least those that have never left. A very naive world view, especially for what is going on in the world right now.

Which countries exactly don’t have WiFi and how many students from those countries has Harvard admitted? UC schools would be full regardless, don’t kid yourself.
 
I miss USF, Santa Clara and St. Mary's big-time football. It all came to an end early in the 1950s when the dollars became just too much to bear. All three limped along for awhile (USF bailed quickly) but it wasn't to be. Now, all three are long-gone from the football scene. The history of the Dons, Broncos and Gaels on the gridiron is worth checking out. But those day are in the rear view mirror.
