So I’m leaving for school out-of-state in two weeks. Today I was invited to a friend’s vacation home with a small group next weekend. Should I go? I’m conflicted because my school recommends I quarantine for two weeks before coming to campus.

No, you should be quarantining which means you don’t go on vacation. Why would you go and the risk infecting your roommates at school? I don’t understand why this is even a question.

So you founded your own business but aren’t sure if you should endanger people during a pandemic bc you want to go have fun? Your judgment seems skewed there, prez.

1) How dare you
2) have you seen how many colleges have had to shut down in person learning and go back to online so far this year because of outbreaks? Don’t be the cause of that at your school.
3) president how...

You can go. Just quarantine for two weeks and show up to school a little later.

Or don’t go, and show up on time.

Choice is yours. What’s more important - the get together or starting school on time?

OP: Do you care that your school asked you to quarantine for two weeks? If so, then don’t go away next weekend. Whether it’s to your friend’s vacation home or Disneyland, the destination is irrelevant. You’re a grown up, you don’t need others to decide for you.

For context, classes don’t start until later. So I would quarantine for at least two weeks upon arrival anyway

You just answered your question. Party hard! Wear a mask, wash your hands. The culling is at hand.

The fact that you are asking this question shows how far we still have to go before we get out of this.

That said, glad you’re asking instead of assuming. The answer is no - don’t go.

Your school will suspend in-class instruction in the next couple of weeks and switch to 100% remote "learning" for 2020-21 academic year.
It's all but guaranteed at this point.
So...
