Chief critics: Some journalists and academics say that colleges asking
students to move out of dorms—like Harvard did Tuesday—can place an undue
burden on them. University of Alabama at Birmingham professor Sarah Parcak
said on Twitter that parents of college students should consider taking in
American and international students who can’t otherwise get home during the
closures.
Today In: Business
Crucial quote: “The dorms are cruise ships,” an unnamed university
official told MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell, in reference to Harvard
University’s decision asking students to move out of dorms by Sunday. The
official predicted that most colleges will follow Harvard’s lead. Multiple
cruise ships have experienced the spread of coronavirus since the outbreak
began, with hundreds of passengers and crew becoming infected and at least
seven dying due to the close conditions on board.
Big number: 22 countries. That’s how many have closed all of their schools
due to coronavirus, according to the United Nations. And 17 additional
countries have also closed some schools in response, the organization said. | u***r
