Colleges in Virginia should consider ramping up their COVID-19 testing from the fall semester, some public health experts say, if campuses even reopen at all in the coming months.
Across Virginiaâs 10 largest universities, more than 7,100 students and about 850 employees tested positive for COVID-19 this fall, according to an analysis by The Roanoke Times of school data. On average, four in every 100 undergraduate students became infected, and at least one in every 100 employees, though many more tests were not logged by the colleges themselves.
Radford University had one of the highest rates, with an estimated 7.7% of undergraduates contracting COVID-19. Virginia Tech, which tested more students, had a rate of 5.7%. James Madison University in Harrisonburg was the only university whose case count also included tests self-reported by students. Those additional 910 cases, to 769 cases logged by JMU, brought the universityâs rate to 8.4%, though without them it stood at 3.9

That the people of the United States are deeply divided has become a cliche in our national discourse. Contrary to the claims of some, the singular source of division today is not political but moral. Dishonorable politicians habitually attempt to obscure the stark black-and-white contrasts of morality with the colorful and pliable Play-doh of political preference for their own advantage. Few subjects illustrate this divergence better than voter fraud.
Arguably, the most frustrating and potentially dangerous aspect of radical ultra-liberalism is that truth is less influential than perception. The mantra of the mental pathology might well be, perception is reality. But is it really? To what extent are feelings more valid than facts? Subjectivism quickly falls apart under close examination.
