Covid vaccine requirements


I just learned that all students will be required to be vaccinated before being allowed on campus and into class at VT next year. However, the professors and faculty there are NOT required to be vaccinated.

Am I missing something here?? You can have your beliefs on whether these requirements are violating our Constitutional rights or not. You can have your own thoughts about whether a vaccine is needed for this age group (which is very much unaffected - or minimally affected - by the virus). But both groups are on campus -- both groups together. This looks like a clear case of discrimination against the student body and a ridiculous double standard.

I am having trouble seeing any logical reason for this other than a "do as I say, not as I do" attitude.
