He has worked too hard for this.

Sad. Hard-working students in higher education will suffer the fallout in many ways. Unfortunately, this is the price of war and we are unquestionably at war. I had a teen crying at the table, understandably, she's an honors student. She's worked so hard and this semester has a break with lighter classes in language and literature but wants in-person opportunities. Her mother is protecting her from mask-wearing and the jab, and I agree. It was a hard conversation to have but I explained that, despite her nice life, friends, Spotify tunes, and movie star crushes...the world is in a state that demands personal sacrifice. The health risk is simply too high.
