Saw this on a Yale Daily News.  Looks like a return to fall sports finally!

Quote from: After more than three seasons of canceled games, Yale and its Ivy League opponents are set to return to regular athletic competition in the fall.

In an email obtained by the News sent to Yale student-athletes Tuesday at 11 a.m., Director of Athletics Vicky Chun shared a joint statement from the Ivy League Council of Presidents announcing their expectation for the resumption of Ivy League competition across all sports starting in fall 2021. The presidents cited the national decline in COVID-19 infections and the availability and uptake of vaccinations in their statement, writing that they are "optimistic that our campuses will be back to something close to normal by this fall" with in-person learning and students enrolled in residence.

Amazingly, the Ivies appear to have actually done this right.

Blind squirrel, nut, etc.

They didn't try to murder their student-athletes.  It's the first thing Cornell The Vampire Squid (as distinct from Cornell The I Would Found An Institution) has done that I approve of since about 1948.

Take my money, assholes.
