Incentivized Pressure
By Cathy Jameson
When they rolled out earlier this year, my college-aged daughter shared that she was not interested in getting the COVID shot. Growing up watching her younger brother suffer through a vaccine injury, she knows that health doesn’t come in the form of a jab. I wish others her age had the knowledge she naturally gained when her brother fell ill. I’m grateful they were spared watching a sibling suffer, but past personal experience certainly does help shape future medical decisions.
I hadn’t worried that Ronan’s big sister would opt for the experimental injectable until a little over 2 weeks ago. That’s when her college announced their return-to-campus plans. The vaccine hadn’t been required, per previous parent reports, up to and well past the college’s May 1st acceptance day date. But getting that experimental vaccine is now part of a new protocol to keep the campus “safe” and fully in-person.
For many, that decision was perceived as a huge relief. Finally! We can go back to normal! some parents shared on the school’s family page online. Good, everyone should be vaccinated, was another type of response offered. Others, like myself, were not quickly celebrating this rash, so it seemed, decision. Incredibly disappointed, I added a comment stating my frustration.
Later, finding each other off the family page, other parents and I banded together to discuss this unexpected change.
A Bit of a Back Story
Several restrictions were put into place when news of the coronavirus hit last year, but campus never completely shut down during the 2020-2021 school year. Classes were still held, and grades were still being recorded. Only a few colleges, I believe, could boast that.
During both semesters last year, COVID spread through the student population at my daughter’s school as it did through many other schools. Since it is a virus, that was to be expected. Like other places, the school had procedures set up to minimize the spread and to care for students who contracted it. Providing separate housing for the duration of the illness, including for my daughter, the few outbreaks that did occur were handled quickly and, we thought, well.
Thinking the worst behind her, we expected that the upcoming school year would start a little less rocky.
Oh, how wrong we were.
Papers Please!
The new requirement for the Fall includes getting one of the experimental COVID vaccines or asking for an exemption to be granted. If the exemption is approved, it will be noticeable who is and who isn’t vaccinated as masks must be worn by the unvaccinated. Basing fear over facts, those students, and faculty and staff who also decline one of the 3 EUAs, will be treated as 2nd class citizens. They, and only they, will face COVID-related restrictions, some that are no longer being practiced in the surrounding local communities.
The same requirements were happening on other campuses, too.
I saw that several colleges in New England, along the East Coast and in the Midwest were making similar announcements within days of each other. Some were Ivy League. Some were not. Some were private. Some were not. I couldn’t find a link that connected each of these institutions, so I kept reading. I also took the time to reach out and asked my daughter’s college who was making these outrageous demands. When I heard this group mentioned 3x in our conversation, I thought Bingo!
Connecting the Dots
Besides following the state and the Department of Health guidelines, the announcement about re-opening was coming from the American College Health Association (ACHA). The more I dug for information on this group, the less ironic it was to see ACHA also listed in other schools’ recent vaccine announcements.
The “ACHA represents over 800 institutions of higher education and the collective health and wellness needs of 20 million college students. ACHA serves nearly 5,500 individual college health and wellness professionals and leaders of all disciplines united together to advance the health and wellness of college students”. Source: ACHA
After reading their About Page, I followed the money. My biggest questions were who is funding this group that has had countless colleges so late in the game change their reopening protocols, and why?? Looking at the programs they support, I checked to see who their audience is, who is backing them, and how were they able to get a stronghold on so many. I was not surprised the more I researched. ACHA partners with pharmaceutical companies such as Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, and Pfizer.
When I peeked at their Facebook page, I was not amused with what – and who – I saw.
The Campus COVID-19 Vaccine Initiative (CoVAC) is supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Cooperative Agreement, CDC-RFA-CK20-2003.
Screenshots of the ACHA’s FB page.
Their agenda is clear: they’ve a massive push to get shots in arms. How? Through intimidation, by placing pressure on students via campus community members, through influencers, and with loads of help from the government, including the White House.
Exemptions are available for students to submit, but those can come with strings attached. I don’t know how because across the states, laws protecting those who decline a vaccine are already on the books. None of those existing exemptions, it should be noted, come with any sort of language that requires masking or mandatory quarantining like the new school-generated COVID vaccine exemptions do. Why are these exemptions different?
Who Do You Think You Are?
Who gave these schools the right to change legal documents that went through and passed state legislation? Why were they rewritten? And when submitted by the student or the parent, who is going to assess them “on a case-by-case basis”? I asked for the criteria should my daughter want to submit the exemption. Shouldn’t the students and their parents see what points need to made when writing something they’ve never had to write before? What if what’s been submitted isn’t ‘religious’ enough? Who are they to judge someone’s religiousness? Are they going to deny a medical exemption for not being “medical” enough? And, by the way, who is judging these documents? I, along with others, did not receive answers to those questions, but I did find this document. paeaonline.org
Page 21 is telling.
It is so very telling.
If you don’t read any of the 34 pages of that document, or the posted follow-up FAQs, read this bolded sentence in the guidelines provided in ACHA’s Considerations for Reopening Institutions of Higher Level Education for the Fall Semester 2021.
It says everything.
Returning to pre-pandemic classroom conditions should be contingent upon the level of campus vaccination.
Read it again.
Returning to pre-pandemic classroom conditions should be contingent upon the level of campus vaccination.
The statement tells me that the requirement to get the COVID vaccine has nothing to do with the student’s health or with the student’s best interest. It would seem that the decision to demand it is based on how many of the student body and faculty can be vaccinated and how quickly.
The level of vaccination? Is that what’s pushing these schools to make these kids jump through fiery hoops? Not the level of the individual’s health. Not the level of antibodies created by students who’ve already contracted COVID. Nope. The level of vaccinations on campus. That’s it. So be damned if you question any of the experimental vaccines. And face a level of discrimination if you don’t opt for any of them before classes start.
Then, The Bribery
Dates to submit vaccine information or exemptions comes, for some colleges, after the Fall tuition bill is due. To make matters worse, as if coercing healthy young adults and threatening them with unnecessary restrictions isn’t bad enough, those who haven’t submitted one of the acceptable school-generated exemptions or a vaccination card, are now being incentivized to quickly comply.
Call it an incentive or a clever form of bribery, people are fighting back. These students saw through the shenanigans and filed a lawsuit. With other schools charging testing fees only for unvaccinated students, I foresee that other student and parent groups will look toward legal action as well.
Where Do I Go From Here?
In my personal searches, I found many other parents with similar concerns. We’ve reached out to each other. We’ve reached out to the schools. We’ve reached out to governors, attorney generals and various state representatives. We’ve also reached out to lawyers. I’m not finished addressing requirements placed on the entire community at my daughter’s school. Others aren’t either. I don’t have a solid solution yet, but I do have some initial suggestions if others find themselves in the same situation.
Find other like-minded parents.
Find other like-minded students.
Your college and university social media pages where the latest vaccine announcements are posting will garner lots of comments. Look for the people there who are also not in favor of experimental vaccines. Reach out to them privately. Then create a group page, or an email thread, where you can talk. Get organized, like other parents are, and work together on a plan.
Before you communicate with the school as a group, be sure that everyone has individually contacted someone within the administrative offices. People can begin their conversation with how this requirement affects their child and them personally. Ask all the questions, the ones you already know the answers to and also the hard ones. I started off my conversation politely, not just because it’s nice to be nice. But because I needed that one person who had all the information to tell me everything she knew. Other people may have called and yelled, or have given the college a what for, or have threatened to take legal action before they had all of the answers. Yelling angrily is a strategy, but it has the potential to immediately turn people away, including the people who might be able to help. I used a different tactic and got most of my questions answered immediately.
Other things I’d suggest is to take notes, keep track of who you speak to and see who gets cc’d on replies from the school. Some parents are taking matters outside of the usual chain of command and are including political figures in their messages to college representatives. If guidelines are coming down from the state, your message should go up to their offices, too.
We, the parents, the disappointed and the discouraged ones, are the minority. So are our college-aged children who know that experimental vaccines are not going to get things back to normal on campus or anywhere. Regardless, their voice and our voices matter. I don’t know if anything that I’ve asked my daughter’s college to change will be changed. But I’m not going to stand by and let anyone entrap, bribe or pressure her.
Stand Up, and Fight.
I’ve been fighting for my son who is vaccine injured for the past 16 years. I never thought I’d have to fight illogical protocols over an illness that has a better recovery rate than the vaccine’s efficacy rate. Here I am, though, along with thousands of other parents who are standing up to hundreds of higher level institutions across the United States of America. For our children, and for their future, I pray we make a difference.

Regarding FL, the law allowing the state itself to make shots mandatory has been on the books for years. The ban on businesses requiring "vaccine passports" in FL just left that part alone; it didn't create it.
Not that that's a good thing; it's just less bad than what a lot of folks have been reporting. Kind of like how DeSantis isn't some kind of savior; he's just less oppressive than the majority of governors (of both parties--it's amazing how similar DeWine of Ohio and Wolf of PA were for the bulk of 2020).

The noose is tightening.....
Florida Bill “Banning Vaccine Passports” Actually Allows State To “Use Any Means Necessary to Vaccinate” Citizens
"An overlooked section of Florida Senate Bill 2006, put into law by the state legislature and Governor Ron DeSantis on May 3, 2021, allows government officials to forcibly vaccinate citizens.
Ironically, the bill was widely supported as it was allegedly intended to ban vaccine passports in Florida.
“In Florida, your personal choice regarding vaccinations will be protected and no business or government entity will be able to deny you services based on your decision,” DeSantis told Floridians.
While the legislature does prohibit private businesses and government entities from asking for proof of a COVID vaccination, it also allows the state to vaccinate citizens “by any means necessary”."
"The bill continues, “If the individual poses a danger to the public health, the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation or quarantine. If there is no practical method to isolate or quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual.”"

These colleges are hurting their own students, young men and women who are at no risk of covid. The many side effects from the Pfizer or Moderna or Merck vaccines are life long. People don't just walk away from a blood clot or auto immune reaction. They may not realize they even have one, I think they call them sub clinical or something like that. I think my mom had one in March, she fell down and has been a little off since. She's not inclined to acknowledge anything or do anything so we pretty much follow her wishes and just ignore it, make her last days comfortable. I wish she hadn't have taken it but she did. It was her choice.
I talked with her a little bit about it. She cites the bogus numbers from the cdc as a reason to vax. she lives under censorship and doesn't know about vaers or anything. We struck gold that night though with the name Kennedy. She always voted for them and when I mentioned CHD she softened and actually heard me out. We reached an understanding, there was room for both views going forward, and that was a really good feeling, since she's in her 80's and I love her. I wish that big Pharma would come to the table and talk like my mom, instead they bribe universities and destroy young lives.

If Christians put their hope in this world, they will be disappointed. Our country is being overthrown by our indebtedness. Guess who has been buying U.S. bonds for YEARS to keep us afloat while on our non-stop spending spree? China. I do believe they consider the U.S. to be lawfully theirs. Trillions in debt has consequences.
Few students attend a four year college on cash paid out of family funds. College debt makes the student vulnerable to the demands of the lender (must be vaxxed!). It also makes them vulnerable to an unstable job market that they must depend on to repay their student loans. The powers that be know they have this financial leverage over college students and they are easy targets. If you have completed only two years of your loan funded degree, you are less likely to pull out of the college for a "safe and effective" vaccine because YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO. The obvious answer would be to vote with your feet and find another non-vaxxing college or a temporary job until the policy is changed because so many pulled out. I believe the Golden Era of college for all is over. The schools have become glorified indoctrination centers and do not deliver the academics promised. Critical race theory now requires its own full time acolyte in many colleges. Go study China's Communist history. This will all look familiar.
Sunday Sermon
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God | Martin Luther
A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing;
Our helper He, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing:
For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe;
His craft and pow’r are great, and, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing,
Were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God’s own choosing:
Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He;
Lord Sabaoth, His Name, from age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us,
We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us;
The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him.
That word above all earthly pow’rs, no thanks to them, abideth;
The Spirit and the gifts are ours through Him Who with us sideth;
Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also;
The body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still,
His kingdom is forever.

A friend told me yesterday that another friend has Wagener's and her doctor told her, that Fauci has done good work on a lot of things.
That if not for Fauci she would not have good medications for Wagener's disease.
I looked up pubmed studies that Fauci was the lead scientist on for medications for Wagener's. I found two done around 1990 and 92. .
"By 1971, Fauci had developed a drug regimen for Wegener's granulomatosis that is ninety-five percent effective. He also found cures for lymphomatoid granulomatosis and polyarteritis nodosa, two other immune diseases."
A regiment is hardly the same thing as developing a drug.

All I can say that vasculitis is inflammation and vaccines causes it, and he knows it.
Did he really make a difference - I doubt it.

So we're essentially trading our country's brightest young minds and healthiest bodies -- basically, our country's future -- for a $3000 mini grant? Heck, that's basically the same amount of money charged for one basic emergency room visit for one person. Who in their right mind would possibly think this is a sane trade-off?
Why is no one boycotting? Think back to how college students contributed to changing the course of the Vietnam war, and now look at everyone today, complying like frightened little sheeple, handing over their very lives to appease an absolutely corrupt and criminal public health bureaucracy.
Thank you, Cathy, for being strong enough and brave enough to speak up.

It all comes down to the Nuremberg Code. These vaccines are EXPERIMENTAL
Nuremberg Code - Wikipedia
The ten points of the Nuremberg Code
The ten points of the code were given in the section of the judges' verdict entitled "Permissible Medical Experiments":[6]
1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.
2. The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the good of society, unprocurable by other methods or means of study, and not random and unnecessary in nature.
3. The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results will justify the performance of the experiment.
4. The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury.
5. No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps, in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as subjects.
6. The degree of risk to be taken should never exceed that determined by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved by the experiment.
7. Proper preparations should be made and adequate facilities provided to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities of injury, disability, or death.
8. The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified persons. The highest degree of skill and care should be required through all stages of the experiment of those who conduct or engage in the experiment.
9. During the course of the experiment the human subject should be at liberty to bring the experiment to an end if he has reached the physical or mental state where continuation of the experiment seems to him to be impossible.
10. During the course of the experiment the scientist in charge must be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he has probable cause to believe, in the exercise of the good faith, superior skill and careful judgment required of him that a continuation of the experiment is likely to result in injury, disability, or death to the experimental subject.

This is horrifying, Cathy, but par for the course in a nation entirely captured by the medical mafia. All risk, no benefit in this age group. Likely no benefit in any age group. Trump completely betrayed us, and the current crop in the White House haven't a clue. Pharma is getting desperate, since so many people are refusing this experimental medical treatment. Mass murderers they are, the "public health" establishment.

Many good ideas here. I would also consider simply having your daughter take a break from university. Wait a year for the fallout from the shots to continue to emerge and for more public pressure to lift these illegal restrictions. I know that this option is less than optimal, but it might be the best one available at this point in time.

I believe Del Bigtree's Informed Consent Network … ICAN.com .. may provide useful information and contacts to protect your precious child from being coerced into accepting an EXPERIMENTAL vaccine that is already injuring many who receive it .. as I understand it … over 5,000 deaths reported .. thousands of hospitalizations .. and in college age students .. many reports of myocarditis .. which is inflammation of the heart .. long term effects unknown .. as well as .. many concerns over fertility in both males and females.
We are living in desperate times …. I suspect we will never return to our normal lives .. never .. we will be forever isolated, demonized, shamed for not being vaccinated … what better way to isolate, demonize or shame someone than to force them to wear a MASK wherever they go????

Thank you for your detective work, Cathy. Just as the free childcare of public school is being used to control parents, so is the sine qua non of a college degree being used to control young people.
A friend whose wife is nursing their child works at one of the colleges with a vaccine mandate, in a state where only medical exemptions exist. I don't know what her appetite for the shot would be if she weren't nursing, but because she is, she doesn't want to take the risk. None of the doctors they see would sign a medical exemption. They're still looking.
For people in the situation, what they want is a practical solution. Nobody wants to hire a lawyer and wait years before being allowed to return to work or the classroom, and more to the point, who can afford it?
I'm not sure what we should all be doing here, other than working with our state legislators, and I don't now how many health freedom laws will succeed in the East Coast states where many of these colleges are. I'm going to have to give this some serious thought.
