FWIW, my small rural school in the middle of nowhere, Ohio (Ohio Northern University, 3k student enrollment) is in the middle of our second week, and have had 3 positive, unrelated cases out of 729 tests.  They have been pretty aggressive with reducing building capacity, and creating/following guidlines.  The campus is also pretty big for its student body size, and is very rural (the nearest walmart is 30 minutes away).  All of my classes are essentially a hybrid model of learning, with drastically decreased class sizes.  The official limit is 50% capacity for rooms, but all the lecture halls are probably 1/3rd capacity - one seat available, then two on each side blocked off.  We are expected to watch several recorded video lectures a week, and then the in class portion is essentially an in-depth recitation.  For example, one of my classes in normal times was scheduled to have 3 2 hour blocks per week, and a 1 hour recitation (6 credit class).  Instead, we have 2 1 hour blocks per week.  We are still doing some in person labs, with extra precautions.

Hopefully these factors will be enough to get us through the semester. I'm the old man of the class so I don't know what the party scene looks like on campus, either pre or post covid, so I don't know how we compare to the big schools in the news.
