COVID-19 at Liberty University is still out of control, but this did not stop the university from having full capacity at their football game last weekend. Cedarville University seems to be getting things under control after a disastrous first week of classes. Grove City College, Dallas Baptist University, and Asbury University have had rough weeks.
