I personally have a much more difficult time learning online as opposed to in person. I go to UND, and they have a "hybrid" approach to learning, which is a combination of online and in person education. They do this so they can charge full tuition prices. Most of my classes are fully online because the professors are at risk if they catch the virus. All of my other classes only meet once a week in person. Masks are "mandatory" but not enforced at all. All of my classes that meet in person once a week move at half pace because the class is split into multiple groups in order to have students socially distance in the classroom. This means I am paying full tuition for half courses and online courses that are labeled in person. They refuse to move all online because they'd have to issue a very large amount of refunds, which they tried to weasel out of in the spring when they shut down. I have an 11 year old brother who goes to middle school. He complains all the time about how many kids don't wear masks and are sent to school sick. Several of his teachers have had to quarantine, along with many students. This puts him at risk, which puts me at risk, which puts my girlfriend at risk, which puts her residents at risk. Businesses don't need to shut down, but the school system definitely needs to move online. They already have one foot in the grave.
