Gov. Polis makes plea to college students: Don't party over Labor Day weekend

[TexasTowelie]

Gov. Jared Polis praised the state’s successful slowdown of COVID-19 transmission in the state since mid-July, but he issued a strong rebuke to college students who he said “held illegal, large parties over the weekend.”

He called the parties “disappointing, inexcusable actions of a small minority of students,” including some from fraternities at the University of Colorado Boulder.

“Now is not the time to party,” Polis said. “There’ll be plenty of time to party in months and years ahead.”

The remarks came during a Thursday news briefing that included the participation of University of Colorado President Mark Kennedy, CU Denver student David Holguin, and University of Denver student Dajah Brooks.

The students at the University of Dayton (my area) seem determined to infect everyone around here.
