I honestly can't see any school, at least the larger ones, willing to take the risk of thousands and thousands of students in tight spaces and having a spread which would jump like wildfire throughout the student body. I predict many will do classes online for the fall, then adjust back to in-person for spring.

Actually that was addressed in tonight press conference. Apparently the CDC doctor was misquoted or misunderstood.
“I didn’t say it was going to be worse, I said it would be more difficult,” Redfield said. "The issue I was talking about was that it will be more difficult in that we will have two viruses circulating at one time.”
Redfield said he wanted to urge Americans to get the flu shot next season in order to help minimize the number of flu infections in case of a recurrence of COVID-19."
Dr. Fauci and Dr.Brix also said it should not be worse and that they are pretty confident that they have plans on how to contain it so that it will not be like this past time. I will be honest I think you will see universities in Alabama , Georgia, Mississippi and Florida with on campus classes in the fall.
