1. They work and I don't want covid

  2. I want to people to see me and be forced to remember that the pandemic isn't over and it's killing thousands everyday

Everywhere I go you'd think the pandemic has been over for years, a distant memory. No, it's still killing thousands a day and hurting countless others. This is completely preventable and we know that because of the successfully handling of it in China.

I love it when people look at me strangely or question why I have on a mask. I want people to be forced to remember that covid isn't over

    The faculty has full control over teaching assignments, and if she's a professor she's probably salaried. Her colleagues could just place her on sabbatical while she recovers. Not saying they're assholes, but I think my department has historically always shifted sabbatical around for people starting cancer treatment and stuff, even before covid made it more of a concern.

      The only new thing is requiring student health insurance or charging them $300/mo for on-campus insurance that entitles them to being seen at the teaching hospital by other students. That's the singular COVID precaution, ensuring that the student can continue paying their tuition fees because something absorbs their medical bills.
