>>I'm curious, too, whether what Tracy posted is the law for all college students or for those attending a state college. IOW, is it the college's regulation and, in this case, the college happens to be the state? I know Yale definitely had some rules about what vaccinations we had to prove. (Can't remember for Amherst--it was too long ago.)

That's really interesting. As I said, if it were state schools, you could view it as a school rule. Wonder what the justification is for requiring it across the board?

Regardless, as you pointed out somewhere upthread, getting your kid the requisites shots, especially meningitis, before they go live in a dorm full of germs and dirt, makes a lot
of sense.
