Btw, Bucknell has had 19 cases of covid in two months. They have conducted about 30,500 tests, so the positivity rate has been 06%. Only one case in the past 30 days.
I know things can go bad quickly when it comes to something like covid, but the Bucknell community deserves a lot of credit for keeping it under control. I am sure behavior hasn't always been perfect, but it clearly has been a lot better than on many campuses. And Dr. Bravman and those who worked with him deserve a lot of credit for devising and executing a good plan. Now if he could only execute a good plan when it comes to athletics.
There have been no student cases in the last 4 weeks. The students have been excellent and the athletes especially are taking this very seriously. https://www.bucknell.edu/life-bucknell/fall-re open...
BTW Bravman did not even want to reopen the fitness center this fall. Athletics convinced him 1.) the opportunity to exercise was important to the health of the students and 2.) it could be done safely. They have been proven right. Hopefully they can convince him that the same can be done with varsity athletics.
