In the past 5 days, I am hearing of many more students considering skipping fall semester

My S who will be a sophomore next year will be going back if school will be in session with actual classes. If it’s going to be remote, he will stay home. We aren’t going to pay for a dorm or off campus apartment for virtual learning, when he can stay home rent free and do the classes online. He will also get a job in addition to his online classes…but we’ll see what happens
