Yeah, it's not just a "college kid" problem. There's plenty of people across the entire age spectrum that are being dumb about it.

Bradley is announcing that it plans to resume on-campus instruction for the fall semester.

Bradley is devising several preliminary plans for an on-campus return. Among items being considered are modifications to classrooms, residential living, common-area access, and laboratories to accommodate physical distancing.

Hybrid learning in which some class elements are conducted on-line and others in small, in-person settings also is possible.

Last month, it was reported coronavirus effects might force Bradley to cut up to $40 million from its budget.
