This paper examines the tradeoff between public health risks and financial standing that school administrators faced when deciding reopening plans. Because in-person instruction at colleges and universities had large effects on COVID-19 case rates, it is critical to understand what caused these decisions. We used binary and multinomial probit models to evaluate an original data set of publicly available data as Citation: Tobin, Jonah, Oliver Hall, well as data from the College Crisis Initiative. Binary and multinomial choice model estimates suggest Jacob Lazris, and David Zimmerman. that conditional upon the prevailing level of COVID-19 in their county, financially distressed colleges 2021. Financial Stress and Health were approximately 20 percentage points more likely to opt for primarily in-person operations than Considerations: A Tradeoff in the less financially distressed colleges.

  • Quebec Education: the Unfinished Revolution
    Norman Henchty Quebec Education: The Unfinished Revolution Profound changes have taken place in the Province of Quebec since 1960. The period is described as the Quiet Revo­ lution and like all genuine revolutions change penetrated deeply into every aspect of the society - the identity, the culture, the institutions, and the people. The French-speaking Quebecer was once defined by his attachment to tradition, his allegiance to the Church, his elitist view of society, his distrust of change, and his detachment from the economic life of the continent. But a new definition has been emerging over the last decade: concern for the present, adherence to a secular and political ethic, an egalitarian view of society, a commit­ ment to change, an engagement in the technology and econ­ omics of the post-industrial state. As the identity of the French Quebecer alters, the tradi­ tional assumptions on which the English Quebecer has oper­ ated no longer hold. His economic and social cocoon has been broken open and he finds himself a member of a minority group, a stranger in a strange land. His identity is trans­ formed and in an ironic way he exchanges places with the French: it is now the English Quebecer who worries about the survival of his culture and language, who seeks his security in tradition, who stands on his constitutional rights. As identities change, so do cultures and institutions. Churches and convents, once the citadels of power, become shrines of a history turned aside; the theology and history of the classical college become the sociology and informatique of the Cegeps; the triumvirate of doctor-lawyer-priest becomes that of bureaucrat-accountant-animateur .
