How COVID-19 is affecting society

LYNCHBURG — As the coronavirus threatens to spread across the Lynchburg region, Liberty University officials are preparing to welcome back up to 5,000 students from spring break this week.

Defying a national trend of campus closures, President Jerry Falwell Jr. has invited students to return to residence halls and has directed faculty members to continue to report to campus even as most classes move online.

In an interview Sunday night, Falwell said somewhere between several hundred to more than 5,000 students are expected to live in campus dorms, where they will continue coursework online rather than in classrooms.

Meanwhile, hundreds of professors and instructors without a valid health exemption will come to campus to hold office hours.

“I think we have a responsibility to our students — who paid to be here, who want to be here, who love it here — to give them the ability to be with their friends, to continue their studies, enjoy the room and board they’ve already paid for and to not interrupt their college life,” Falwell said.

Smart people don't want the job. it's high pressure, constant target of criticism, your life is exposed and prodded to hell and back, need to be charismatic and extroverted, always acting, preforming... be careful with your words as they will get twisted, what you say and do, it's exhausting. Back to back events, travel, no time for family.. your life is a rollercoaster from the initial campaign all the way though. for a job thats 400,000 Dollars a year....

More like too many Americans have been duped by the pawns of oligarchs into believing they don't want a president that's smarter than they are.

My COVID-19 story this week: As I've probably mentioned in the past, we've moved to a new place in Central Florida that is kind of in the country. We did so, believing that it would be pretty easy to sell our house in South Florida. Well... it sold right away (before it even hit MLS) but was contingent on the buyer getting a loan.

Guess what... Banks and lenders have really cracked down on loans because people are losing their jobs and the deal fell through because they can't find a lender. So, it looks like there is no retirement for me in June unless a miracle happens and the couple that wanted to buy our house manages to get a loan. We did extend the time for them to try, so I guess we'll see. I can't say that I'm not disappointed, I just wanted it all to be done.
