It’s amazing that this is still going on in 2023. Why do students put up with it?
The Blaze reports:
Rutgers University to disenroll students who don’t comply with COVID vaccine mandateRutgers University has said that it will disenroll students who do not adhere to the school’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for the upcoming school year. The policy is set to take effect on August 15, 2023.However, Rutgers has gone back and forth on its COVID policies over the past two years. The Brownstone Institute reported that on March 25, 2021, Rutgers became the first university in the country to announce it would require students to get the COVID vaccine ahead of the fall 2021 school year. But this policy was instituted only after the school retracted a prior statement earlier that year, which said, “With our stance of human liberties and our history of protecting that, the vaccine is not mandatory.”Rutgers, even now, continues to claim that it has a “commitment to health and safety for all members of its community,” even though Rochelle Walensky issued a press release on July 30, 2021, that the COVID vaccines do not prevent contracting the illness.Despite the press release, Rutgers announced in January 2022 a booster mandate that students had to abide by before January 31. This left currently enrolled students little choice but to go along with the mandate in order to stay enrolled.Of the 2,679 four-year colleges and universities across the country, Rutgers remains one of the fewer than 100 universities that will not let go of COVID vaccine mandates.
