#4 Interestingly, don't yet know about football for this fall but at least as regards re-opening the colleges, there's a semi-strong correlation thus far with political proclivities of the governor.

State flagships that have signaled or even announced formally that they intend to re-open this far include those in:

- Indiana: Purdue (Pres. Mitch Daniels)
- Texas: A&M, Texas Tech, UTEP (res. Heather Wilson, formerly Sec'y of the Air Force)
- Tennessee: UT, also Middle Tennessee St.
- N. Carolina state university system
- N. Dakota system
- U. Alabama system
- U. Florida system
- West Virginia U.

Considering re-opening, likely to announce soon: Ohio State, Wake Forest

Care to guess who announced they will definitely NOT be open, instead either totally or largely online?
- California State University system: all 23 campuses closed this fall, online only
- U. California system: none of 10 campuses will re-open fully; all will rely heavily if not primarily online, per UC spokesperson Tuesday
- Harvard: will be mainly online

Gee, I wonder which way the lefty U. Michigan administration will go... Do they realize that Ohio State's academic reputation is soaring and will soon catch up to and surpass Michigan's?

#8 I;m betting UM and MSU football this fall, bitch

fans, optional, but by then the uprising and cabin fever may have stripped the authorities of any power
