Penn State, Syracuse and Purdue are three of the latest universities to punish students who are violating the social distancing guidelines that were set to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus on campus.
Penn State University
Videos posted to TikTok and Twitter show hundreds of Penn State students partying outside of University Park dorms, which are known to be freshmen housing, on Wednesday night, just after moving in. Students are seen dancing, chanting and certainly not social distancing, and a majority aren’t wearing masks.
“Wrong on so many levels,” a sophomore at the university wrote on Twitter early Thursday morning. Hours later, the university’s president, Eric Barron, responded with a statement condemning the students involved, noting that the University Park, Pa., school had intervened on Wednesday evening and the crowds had dispersed.
