I’m sorry but taking college courses from your parents home is not even close to being fully immersed in your residential college. For example, Duke houses all freshman in the east campus with their own dining commons, residence halls, theaters, gyms, library, on campus academic clubs, performing arts, attending athletic events and social life in the Greek system.
You get the opportunity to interact and collaborate with freshman from all over the world. And living on your own is an education in and of itself. College Isn’t just about learning Physics 101. These kids have been already doing online learning this spring either in HS or college, do they really want to be doing it another semester. No ways around it, online learning is subpar for college students.
