Will never give a penny to my alma mater Michigan State, nor our daughter’s, UCLA.

Thank you, NCM, for your continued & exhaustive work these past years!! 🙏🏻

So appreciative of your diligence on all this! Many families I know are using your information to help make informed college choices.

Thank you so much! I just want this information to reach as many people as possible.

It's pretty crazy that they're still pushing this failure when everyone else moved on.

It's disgusting discrimination.

And why are lawyers arguing whether Jacobson applies or not.

They should be arguing that Jacobson only allowed for a fine, not being taken out of school or work!

I appreciate this list so much, and yet, it makes me so sad. (How the mighty have fallen, both intellectually and morally.)

Awesome project .... and the list is getting smaller and smaller. Of course, it would be the medical schools that are still mandating. Sigh.

It's just it's become so totally obvious that colleges are nothing more than brainwashing camps. Even looking back at occidental in 1971, that's clear. I say avoid it altogether. You're just going DEEP into debt for the privilege of being mind-controlled!

And any profession that won't let you in w/o a college degree will insist that you abandon common sense & decency, and continue to be treated like potential criminals unless you do as directed by the bankster-infiltrated “professional” organization.

Go live in nature, get off the treadmill, learn things that are of ACTUAL value — rather than waiting till you're geriatric, as I unfortunately did.

Thank you for remaining irrepressible, Dr. Nass.

Thank you for this incredible list. If we stop supporting colleges that mandated the poison sharpie it will make a difference. Money talks, money walks!

I really appreciate this post very much- my youngest's alma mater, Stetson University (graduated in '22) absolutely would have forced a mandate if it wasn't in the state of Florida. The masking, testing and incentives were OFF THE CHAIN bad (such as get jabbed to "enter a chance to win free tuition for the semester"), and so bad that my daughter started telling people she was jabbed just to get them off her back. She did her own research and said she thought it would hurt her fertility (she majored in Health Sciences). She got sick multiple times anyway from all the shedding from other students and Stetson absolutely made all the students miserable. The DeLand campus is small, around 2,000 undergraduates, and in my opinion they shot themselves in the foot. They lost a considerable number of students permanently because they could not justify $50K/year for sudden online classes taught by professors who had no idea how to teach remote. And since 70% of the students reside in Florida, if they lived within 50 miles of the school, they had to move out of the dorms and learn from home. The students who were left on campus had limited access to food service and weren't allowed to congregate together socially. One professor MOVED TO EUROPE during the lockdowns and taught from there, with a 6 hour time difference, and changed assignments and the syllabus at odd times of the day on a whim, making these poor kids frantically keep checking in, never knowing what was going on and never being given a break - I mean, unless you are a doctor on call or a first responder on a shift, you can't be "on" 24/7 with no break. Think how hard this was for them to have to navigate online learning for 6-7 courses at a time during a semester. Think of all the labs and clinicals the health science students couldn't do "online". The lack of communication between the professors and students was simply embarrassing and unprofessional. Many of these professors, like the one who moved to Europe, treated it like a vacation. A vacation on the backs of our children and on our dime. The students who left and transferred to community college were completely screwed - credits didn't transfer and I know many who still aren't finished 2 years later. As a weak olive branch, if you came back for the 2022 school year, Stetson gave students a $500 "tuition gift". I told my daughter failure is not an option, keep your head down, finish up and get the hell out of there with your science degree, because if you transfer, you will never finish. I will absolutely never give Stetson another penny. It is one of the "wokest" universities in Florida.

Thank you for sharing this story. I have updated our Website to reflect this and best of luck to your daughter!

Any tips on how healthcare students can opt out? A good friend of mine has 2 sons in healthcare programs (pharmacy and nursing) at -ugh- Purdue.

What I read about them in this article makes me ashamed of my pharmacy alma mater.

There are legal resources on our Website - the lawyers listed there have been successful in secure exemptions for some healthcare students.

Crazy, Rutgers finally dropped mandate, probably was all the talk by republicans in state revoking their 2 billion $ in state aid they get from taxpayers, sadly I still see 10% of people still walking around masked up at my school!

And the student lawsuit which they recently petitioned to SCOTUS - they are trying to render it moot.

Not on the list is PennWest University, California, Pennsylvania 15419? It’s a highly-claimed 300 acre university with a student body of more than 5,000 undergraduates and more than 2,000 graduates. Your tool needs fixing, PennWest University was ignored in last year’s version too, and is too large to be ignored. It’s located in a small town called California, Pa and is 30 miles south of Pittsburgh.

This is the first I have learned that PennWest University did not have a C19 vaccine mandate. As stated (now and previously), I am always happy to update our list. If we miss any updates (now or in the future), there are many ways to contact us to suggest an update to our list. Thank you!

I never said PennWest did or did not have a C19 mandate. I don’t know. The problem is why is it omitted out of the more than 1,200 schools listed.

PennWest was added to our list of colleges that NEVER mandates C19 vaccines; thanks for bringing this to our attention.

We do not have the bandwidth to include every regional college on our list; we followed rankings from US News and World report. We appreciate constructive feedback; we'll look into PennWest.

It is true that the University of Wisconsin Madison did not require the COVID vaccine. However, there was a lot of pressure to get it and the unvaccinated were required to test. If you did not comply with testing there were consequences. Also, my daughter was a student at that time and in 2021 was accepted to the nursing school. She ended up dropping out because the nursing school could not guarantee that she could get exemptions accepted for all her clinical sites. Besides not wanting an experimental shot, she also has 2 autoimmune conditions. Ironically, the School of Nursing was given a diversity award 2 months later. Also, in the University of Wisconsin system LaCrosse and Platteville were the best. Platteville required no testing, did not make students report vaccination status and even had some in person classes.

Thank you so much for these comments. I will make new notes on our list as a result!
