Most believe they’ll be exposed to COVID-19 on campus. Notre Dame and North Carolina universities already canceled in-person classes over outbreaks.
Many students are taking a pandemic gap year.
More than one in five college undergraduates don’t plan to enroll this fall, according to a new College Reaction/Axios poll of about 800 students taken Aug. 16-17. And 85% of those surveyed believe they are likely or very likely to be exposed to the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 if they are on campus.
That’s not too surprising, as coronavirus outbreaks have been reported across several universities that just recently reopened. Four colleges and universities suspended in-person classes already this week, including Notre Dame and the University of North Carolina, after reporting clusters of dozens of students and faculty testing positive for COVID-19.

don't believe for one second it is because most believe they will be exposed to covid. The issue is the uncertainly. MOST don't want to enroll because they don't want to do virtual learning.
I think I will enroll for a liberal arts degree and make millions after graduation
Because clearly this lot of commenters would prefer to remain ignorant and uneducated. No wonder Trump won in 2016.
There's always one smarter than the rest.
