USuCk suspends students after pandemic pool party


Aug 31, 2020, 10:01 PM

The University of South Carolina has suspended 15 students and charged six Greek letter organizations with student conduct violations after a weekend pool party in which hundreds of students gathered despite city coronavirus mandates for masks and social distancing, according to several news reports.

Nine Greek Village houses — six of which are sororities — were in quarantine after Saturday’s party at The Apartments at Palmetto Compress in Columbia, where the city’s fire department dispersed at least 200 revelers who crammed into a gated pool area, according to The State.

This is getting stupid. CDC has admitted actual Covid deaths without comorbiduties are under 950.
A healthy person has a .002% chance of dying from Covid. I bet most of those fell into that category. Govt power grab is getting stupid.

The apartments that rejected the advice of usuck officials to use safe practices with the usuck students that live in those apartments, the students should be ban from living there, or remove them from the school, and that would send a firm message to the managers of all the apartment where usuck student rent while in school!!! And every student that was at the pool party, they should be suspended from school bc of the damage that could have and may have caused for the school and the community, the financial lost would be devastating compared to the loss of a 100 spoiled brats and their tuition, and every student that was attending that pool party should be charge the maximum fine and jail time, and it should be done at every school that students are refusing adhere protocol!!!

Please freaking tell me you are not serious? Now you want Apt employees, Coot officials, and whoever else to police the comings and goings of adults? I am pretty sure everyone there is 18 and above, they can vote, they can drive, they are not under house arrest and don't require ankle bracelets!!!

It's people's choice whether to hangout or not! That group of students have almost zero chance of having serious side effects but truth be known, most of them have probably already been exposed to the virus. Most vulnerable people have heard enough now via all sources to know what environment they should attend.

You know viruses don't go away because ppl wear masks, they decrease due to exposure and vaccines. CV will be around forever and as exposure, antibodies and vaccines happen, the amount of serious illness decreases.

I already had it, and I have 15 friends that knowingly have had it from age 21-76. I am sure probably another 15 friends have had it as well. But people will not stop living especially at that age with a risk of .005 for 22 and under.

Don't try to push your socialistic, actually dictatorship views on a group of young healthy kids trying to escape the restrictions that in some cases are ridiculous.

Now if this was a pool party of 100 adultcare patients that were dancing, drinking, playing beet pong, funneling beers, sharing joints/bongs, french kissing in the corner!!! Then by all means break that crap up because I don't want to see it, but honestly at 1% deathrate, there would be concern, but 100 ppl 75+ partying like rockstars, likely 1 might not make the night anyway, there goes your 1%!!

You can't tell people old enough to fight for your freedom that they can't hang out with friends!!! You were not invited and wouldn't have to go if you were a vulnerable!

Just saying!!! I'm not going to allow gov't dictate the remainder of my life and I have the choice to pool party or not!!

Being 63 years old and still working full time I can tell


Sep 1, 2020, 6:52 AM

you that if any adultcare patients still had time or still wanted to participate in dancing, drinking, playing beet pong, funneling beers, sharing joints/bongs, french kissing in the corner!!! I am all for them and you should be too JUST NO PICS You are right no one wants to see that.

For the record we all are going to die just depends how.

Why is the focus in these replies always about how the students themselves aren't likely to get any symptoms? If they were going to party and then never leave the campus for any reason then perhaps that would be a logical point. However, if in theory such parties leads to a few hundred of these students catching the virus then just how many people would they spread it to while going out to restaurants, stores, and other public areas?

I'm sure someone will reply with how they should be able to live their lives, but this entire experience is rough on all of us, and we've all had to make certain sacrifices during the past several months. The whole attitude of "I'm in an age group where I'm not likely to be seriously impacted by this" is exactly why we're still dealing with this thing on such a high level right now.

If this were a disease/sickness that was detrimental to young people, and the older were doing things that could cause a lot more young people to be infective, can you imagine the things they would be saying about people 30 and up that refused to consider the health and well being of the young people that was being harmed the most!!!

But it's OK to have these demonstrations on campus like football yesterday but you can't hang out at the pool.

Stupid morons, the whole lot. Wouldn't happen at Clemson.


Sep 1, 2020, 10:38 AM

Clemson students would have had the good judgment to hang BLM banners and call it a peaceful protest.
