DIII school cancelling all fall sports

I'm guessing that will be a very small iceberg.  

Bowdoin is a private college in Maine with an enrollment of 1800.  It also has an endowment of $1.74 billion.   I am sure that the athletics department revenue mean very little to the operation of this institution.

I don’t think athletics will take place at any college this fall......likely not in the spring either

I tend to agree. Even so, I renewed my football season tickets. Basketball ?

Sports (especially football) are going to be too important not to happen at some point.  Might get football delayed until Spring and have 25-50% capacity

Morehouse is out.   I expect this to be a common story over the next 30 days.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/29370349/morehouse-cancels-football-season-due-coronavirus-pandemic

WASHINGTON — The government announced Monday that international students will not be allowed to stay in the country if the institution in which they're enrolled is holding online-only courses this fall, and those failing to comply with the rules will risk deportation.

Students on F-1 and M-1 visas who face such a situation "must depart the country or take other measures, such as transferring to a school with in-person instruction to remain in lawful status," the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency said in a news release.
