New semester sees continued caution on campus reopenings
As a new university semester begins this month in many parts of East and Southeast Asia, still affected by second and third waves of COVID-19, online courses are still common and there is evidence in several countries that students are opting out for the semester until physical classes resume.
Vaccine roll-outs, which began in February in some countries in Asia, have so far had barely any impact on universities which are still implementing special measures for the coming semester and are likely to continue until at least June. These include socially distanced classes, testing and other measures.
February 26, 2021 CITY of San Fernando Mayor Edwin “EdSa” Santiago is taking the bold step of reopening schools amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The local government unit (LGU) has allowed Our Lady of Fatima University (Olfu) to gradually reopen its campus for limited face-to-face classes.
“Nag-back-to-work at back-to-business na tayo. Now we are trying to go back-to-school but with compliance to the minimum health protocols and Commission on Higher Education (Ched) standards. We are the first LGU in Central Luzon to reopen and isa itong malaking kontribusyon sa siyudad at national government dahil dapat continuous pa rin ang pagpo-produce natin ng graduates lalo na sa programa ng medicine at science na siyang pinaka-kailangan natin ngayong mga pandemya,” Santiago said.
