University Won't Refund Tuition After Dismissing Students for Not Social Distancing

Everyone knows college is a scam nowadays, but students at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts are really getting swindled.

Eleven first-year students at Northeastern University who were recently dismissed for violating social distancing rules will not receive a refund on their $36,500-semester tuition, the Boston Globe reported. If the university had to refund every student who wasn't going to learn anything, how would they ever stay afloat?

(Via The Hill)

The students were found at the Westin Hotel on Wednesday evening not wearing face coverings and flouting social distancing protocols, university spokeswoman Renata Nyul told the Globe.

They will not be permitted to take classes online this fall but will be allowed to return in the spring.

The students were part of a one-semester program for freshmen that was purchased in advance for $36,500, and their tuition will not be refunded.

Northeastern said students who were dismissed would have the right to contest their dismissals at an expedited hearing. ...

The university said students were reminded on multiple occasions this week to follow pandemic protocols and were required to acknowledge reviewing the student handbook, which listed all of the required procedures.

Of course, the real shocking news is that parents are coughing up $36,500 a semester for a college education these days. Surely we can find Marxist professors who are willing to indoctrinate students for cheaper.

  2. I noticed that so many SU students are walking around wearing a mask....even on Milford Street (off campus) Is this something they are now required to do while they are on campus (even outside)? It looks pretty strange for them to have a mask on with no one in sight walking along Route 13. Thinking they are being told they have to wear a mask regardless.

  3. What stupid parents for forking over that amount of money to start with. The later part of the paragraph is where they should begin anyway, makes much more sense.

  4. Court battles will indeed have the final solution. Why the colleges continue think its the old days where what they say goes is beyond me.

    It will start in court and settlements will take place. May see a major college or two try a full court battle but in the send, the media will force the hands and settlements will be the end game.

    If they would have provided a good solution first - the preconceived notion of colleges being all about the money would have lessened.

    This just magnifies it. Silly colleges.

  6. Get ready to be sued and lose! You have no authority to ban students from yuor campus for not following something that is not law!!!

  7. Pretty sure that is incorrect @8:35. Depends on the type of institution and Northwestern is a Private University. Which means they can set the policy for the students and if the students don't follow policy they can be removed from campus.
