<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Online Class Extension and Change of Academic Schedule Due to COVID-19</span></strong></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Konkuk University decided to extend conducting online classes until April 12 which has been scheduled to be held until the 2nd week (March 29) after the opening of the first semester of 2020 (March 16) for prevention of infection and student safety due to the global spread of COVID-19.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Following the decision of the Ministry of Education to additionally postpone the start day of elementary, middle and high schools due to the spread of COVID-19, the university shared opinions from members of the university, such as students and professors, and decided by the Academic Affairs Committee to schedule the face-to-face lecture to start from April 13 (Mon), which will be postponed for 2 weeks from that was originally scheduled for March 30 (Mon).</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Although there are many concerns and inconveniences regarding the change of the academic schedule due to the spread of COVID-19, we ask for your patience and cooperation as it is an inevitable additional measure to prevent collective infection and prevent COVID-19 from spreading through classrooms where crowded with students.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">KU is also closely reviewing preparations for emergencies after the scheduled face-to-face class schedule. After the final exam, the final grade input period will be expanded to 2 weeks and the summer classes will be flexibly operated to ensure sufficient reinforcement of face-to-face lectures such as experiment and practical trainings. In particular, the academic schedule for the midterm and final exams will be flexibly operated through the discretion of the instructor and consultation with students.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">With the extension of online lectures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the lockdown of main buildings of university and the restriction of outsiders' access have been extended for 2 weeks to continue until April 12th (Sunday). Even after the face-to-face lectures begin, regular quarantine disinfection by buildings, body temperature measurement for entrants, and identification will be conducted and hand sanitizers will be provided for each college.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">KU must also fulfill its social responsibility to prevent the spread of infectious diseases to the community while simultaneously ensuring the health and safety of students, their right to study and the quality of instruction. We ask for the understanding and cooperation of all members of the various inevitable measures, and we wish all of us to overcome the social crisis caused by COVID-19 and meet again.<br /></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: 굴림;"><br /><img width="636" height="405" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; display: block;" alt="" src="ArticleFile.do?id=11784222" /><br /></span><span style="font-family: 굴림;"></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: 굴림;"><img width="656" height="451" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; display: block;" alt="" src="ArticleFile.do?id=11784223" /></span><span style="font-family: 굴림;"><br /></span></p>
