The White House isn’t okay with getting parents sick, but is okay with getting students sick. If you don’t want sick parents, don’t send students to class to get sick and do virtual learning instead.

But, in general, I don’t agree with having sick college students quarantined in dorm rooms which aren’t private, sharing common spaces such as the bathrooms designed for use by multiple people at the same time, and dining at the dining hall with hundreds of other students. And asking the university to be responsible for their health while sick. It’s a stupid idea in most cases that don’t involve extensive travel arrangements.

The point is Universities made the choice whether to have in person classes or not. Everyone knew there was an increased risk of those kids getting COVID but also some medical folks think college age folks are less likely to experience any significant harm. Just because a youngster is Covid positive doesn't mean he/she is sick. You also realize that you can get those meals in the mess halls to go. 

You can say it's best to have covid infected kids travel home to their elderly parents. I'll go with better to hold up in place and practice your preventives measures. But you're the medical expert.
