Wake should rent all the hotels in town for students.
I think they're putting sick people up in the Hawthorne fwiw

...it depends...?
I definitely think if you’re not meeting in person you should have regular class “zoom” meetings that are live and offer opportunity for engagement.
Seriously. Posting a taped Zoom lesson should be grounds for dismissal. How lazy can you be? Professors never had it so easy.
Having kids quarantined on campus while engaging in remote learning is super dumb. Of course we all know why Wake is doing it.
Modality requirements differ by field. First-year courses are going to be different by nature. Don't judge the quality of an educational experience by its execution during covid and know that professors and staff are working double and triple time to make things work
You can choose to judge whatever you like, DistrictDeacon.But is it ok to judge the quality vs the cost during Covid?

Genuine question: what are y'all expecting the price of wake to buy your student that, say, Winthrop can't afford?
This conversation is just an extension of the same conversation we always have about whether or not the cost of wake is worth it.
Sounds like this poor kid is having a rough go of it in his freshman year. That sucks. All those freshman divisionals sucked in normal times, so I can see why the experience would be significantly worse during covid.
But I can also assure readers that plenty of other classes at wake are fully synchronous and meeting on zoom for every session. And faculty and staff are definitely working their asses off under the same shitty conditions as the students.
So legitimate complaints here about diminished experiences in some courses are being extrapolated to explain the entire institution's response to covid.

Interesting. I think the problem is not that wake can't figure it out but that you are under the impression that elementary schools *have* figured it out. I don't think they have, based on everything I read from elementary school teacher friends.The resources to make in-person education safe and viable. Public elementary schools are meeting in person and Wake can’t figure out how to do it?
