This is a good measure for prevention as that is a HUGE campus.

At this time many are extending spring break by a week. Unless you go to each website you won’t know. We have ties to 8 schools and have been notified

Good that they are taking this very seriously. I have also met many visiting students from WI, MN, WV, and other places who are here in the Villages visiting their grand parents. And some retired professors here in the Villages. One was a statistics professor from Ohio who used to like talking to my sister-in-law as she majored in statistics at the U of VA.

They will probably be treated well by these institutions. There are many eyes on them.
