Colleges Brace for Covid-19

Colleges Brace for Covid-19 by Karin Fischer, Chronicle of Higher Education "With federal health officials sounding the alarm, American colleges are bracing for more-widespread outbreaks of coronavirus within the United States. They are readying communications plans, cautioning students to use preventive health measures, and even preparing for possible college closures. “It’s not so much a question of if this will happen in this country anymore but a question of when this will happen,” Nancy Messonnier, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said on Tuesday. “We are asking the American public to prepare for the expectation that this might be bad.” The contagious respiratory illness, now formally known as Covid-19, broke out in China in late 2019, but it has been spreading around the world, upending the stock market, and raising fears of a global pandemic. With large numbers of students and faculty members who travel internationally to study, teach, and do research, colleges could be vulnerable to outbreaks, said Sarah Van Orman, chief health officer of University of Southern California Student Health. Another risk factor is colleges’ relative density, with students studying and living in close quarters. “We’re really at the front lines,” said Van Orman, a professor of family medicine. >> Good News: In colleges’ favor, however, is that younger people so far have contracted Covid-19 at lower rates than others and have recovered better than those who are older and sick. >> Lesson Plan: Meanwhile, colleges are seeking to minimize students’ risk on campus and to educate them in preventive health measures. Much of colleges’ advice on coronavirus mirrors that for other infectious respiratory illnesses: Wash your hands frequently. Cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough. Try not to rub your eyes or nose. Stay home if you’re sick. Avoid being in close contact with others. >> Be Smart: Because of a lack of transparency in reporting in the early stages of the outbreak, scientists remain unsure of just how fatal the latest coronavirus is. If Covid-19 turns out to be especially infectious, colleges might consider “closing down for a block of time to reduce transmission,” U. of Central Florida associate VP Michael Deichen said. >> Keep Reading 2.  Sultans at Swat by Ben Pickman, Sports Illustrated "On Saturday night, Zac O’Dell and Nate Shafer were in their dorm alongside their teammates on Swarthmore College’s campus watching the 76ers-Bucks game when the senior co-captains' phones started blowing up. Shafer looked down to see an ESPN update stating that San Diego State had lost at home to UNLV, 66-63. The texts promptly rolled in. “Congrats, you guys are the last undefeated team,” many of them read. Coming into last weekend, there were only two teams throughout the three divisions of NCAA men’s basketball that had yet to lose a game: Division I SDSU and Division III Swarthmore. The Garnet—by definition a red silicate mineral—are now the only team still undefeated, the lone men’s program to win all of its regular season games. “It was kind of a weird environment,” O’Dell says, reflecting on receiving the news of SDSU’s loss. “Another team just lost, nothing really happened for us.” The fact remains that one of America’s most rigorous and prestigious academic institutions also now sports the men’s basketball team that had the most successful regular season relative to its competition. Swarthmore, located just 11 miles from Philadelphia, accepts just 9% of potential applicants, per the school’s 2018-19 Common Data set. It enrolled just 1,647 total students last year and its average SAT score was 1463. It has shaped countless Nobel Prize winners, MacArthur geniuses and Rhodes Scholars." >> Reality Check: O’Dell, a chemistry major, is a member of the American Chemical Society, and has presented some of his research at academic conferences. In the fall, he co-authored a paper entitled, “In Situ Quantification of Silver Nanoparticle Dissolution Kinetics in Simulated Sweat Using Linear Sweep Stripping Voltammetry,” becoming likely the only active college basketball player to see his work published in a recent issue of Environmental Science & Technology. He is currently applying to PhD programs, focusing on analytical or physical chemistry. >> Big Man on Campus: For the past three years, Shafer has volunteered at a local preschool, located within minutes of the team’s gym. As a thank you for his efforts, dozens of kids that he had worked with attended the team’s Feb. 8 game against Franklin & Marshall. That afternoon, Tarble Pavilion was filled with six, seven and eight-year-olds all wearing Swarthmore shirts with Shafer’s No. 40 on it. “It’s definitely a special moment,” he says. “Not one you forget.” >> Go Deeper 3.  Regional Rankings  Men's Rankings Atlantic: 1-Stevens, 2-Yeshiva, 3-Eastern Central: 1-UW-Platteville, 2-Washington U., 3-Benedictine East: 1-Brockport, 2-Rensselaer, 3-Hobart Great Lakes: 1-Mount Union, 2-Wittenberg, 3-Marietta Mid-Atlantic: 1-Swarthmore, 2-Johns Hopkins, 3-Christopher Newport Northeast: 1-Springfield, 2-Middlebury, 3-Tufts South: 1-Emory, 2-Randolph-Macon, 3-Texas-Dallas West: 1-St. Thomas, 2-Nebraska Wesleyan, 3-Saint John's Women's Rankings Atlantic: 1-Marymount, 2-Rowan, 3-DeSales Central: 1-UW-Whitewater, 2-Chicago, 3-Wheaton East: 1-New Paltz, 2-Ithaca, 3-Cortland Great Lakes: 1-Hope, 2-Baldwin Wallace, 3-DePauw Mid-Atlantic: 1-Messiah, 2-Scranton, 3-Widener Northeast: 1-Tufts, 2-Amherst, 3-Western New England South: 1-Trinity (Texas), 2-Oglethorpe, 3-Texas-Dallas West: 1-Wartburg, 2-Bethel, 3-Loras 4.  Net Generation  The 12th annual ITA Division III National Women's Team Indoor Championship will be hosted by Centre this weekend.

Enrollment Woes

We hope you enjoy D3Playbook and that you'll share this with your friends, colleagues and co-workers. >> Good Wednesday morning. It's Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. >> Today's Word Count: 1,063. An easy morning read. Less than four minutes. >> Thanks for reading D3Playbook. Please recommend us to a friend or co-worker. Subscribe to d3Playbook 1.  Enrollment Woes by Scott Carlson, Chronicle of Higher Education "There’s no point in sugar-coating it. Private and public colleges alike are worried about enrollment. The Chronicle’s latest enrollment survey, conducted with the Council of Independent Colleges and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, paints a picture of anxiety, especially at private colleges and regional universities. More than half of those institutions did not meet their enrollment or net-revenue goals last fall, the survey found. About 60 percent of the public and private institutions that responded to the survey missed their enrollment goals. And 67 percent did not meet their net-revenue goals. There is no magic bullet to fix the underlying problem — declining enrollment — that’s driving much of the worry." >> The Bottom Line: The Chronicle’s latest enrollment survey of 292 institutions, conducted with the CIC and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, makes clear that stress, pain, and uncertainty plague the nation’s private colleges and regional universities. Fifty-two percent of private institutions missed both enrollment and net-revenue goals, compared with 49 percent of publics. >> Of Note: Private institutions were more active in giving out student aid, often a key factor in attracting students to a college. Forty-six percent of private institutions raised their level of aid, while roughly 30 percent of publics gave more aid last fall. Half of the public institutions gave out the same level of aid as the year before, compared with a third of private colleges. >> What They're Saying: “If there’s one trend I’m seeing, it’s the rising level of anxiety pushing people into looking for miracle drugs — you know, the magic pill that’s going to help me transform overnight what’s been otherwise a very difficult job,” Peter Farrell of consulting firm, Farrell Day, says. >> Reality Check: Susquehanna University offers an example of how uncertainty can affect an institution. It had a challenging year; the Pennsylvania university missed its enrollment goals by less than 5 percent, but also missed its net-revenue goals by more than 5 percent, even after revising those goals down more than once. Susquehanna also gave out more money in institutional aid and enrolled fewer international students. >> The Final Word: “The University of Minnesota has become really competitive,” says provost Karen Kaivola, noting that some students come to Augsburg for a year or two, then try to transfer to the state flagship. But she believes that Augsburg has created a niche in the market and a comfortable place for non-white students. “It’s a challenging environment for higher education, but I think we occupy — for now — a special space.” >> Go Deeper ($) 2. 51 Millions Reasons to Give by Chris Churchill, Albany Times-Union "More than four decades ago, Mary Haanen and Rich Templeton were teenagers and newly arrived at Union College. They met at the Rathskeller dining hall and the rest, as they say, is history. On Friday, the long-married couple returned to Union (N.Y.) College for a remarkable announcement. In front of an audience of hundreds gathered in the Memorial Fieldhouse for a fundraising event, school President David Harris announced that Mary and Richard Templeton have committed to donating $51 million to the college. You read that right. $51 million." >> Why It Matters: That's the biggest donation in Union's 225-year history. >> Situational Awareness: The couple, living Dallas, Texas, had three children, and their lives were better than they could have ever dreamed possible, Richard Templeton has said. But in 2013, while on a family beach vacation, Mary had waded out into the water when she was picked up by a massive wave and slammed into the ocean floor. She was instantly paralyzed. >> Reality Check: In a speech that CNN described as the "one graduation speech you should watch," Richard talked about the power of his wife's resilience. Mary, in turn, talked about her struggle and determination to overcome, small step by small step. "Small and steady steps can be quite big and spectacular," Mary said. "They move you to a bigger place." >> The Final Word: Mary said her goal is to leave the people and places she touches better than how she found them. Go Deeper 3.  Mat Time   It's regional championship weekend on the mat as teams and individuals strive to qualify for the NCAA Division III meet on March 10-11 in Cedar Rapids.
