Returning to business, not quite as usual at UNSW

There’s no getting round “strong and unavoidable safety” measures”

UNSW advises students that all Term Two (June 1 – August 27) courses and assessments will be “will be accessible on-line, as they were in Term One. So, if you start your course overseas, you can complete it overseas.” Good-o, of course, international students excluded from Australia don’t have any alternative.

The university also expects an end to COVID-19 assessment concessions, with “grading expected to revert to normal.”

And by Term Three (September 14 December 10), UNSW hopes, “most of our typical on-campus activities will have resumed, with physical distancing and other health safety measures remaining a strong and unavoidable feature of campus life.” Which might rule-out the 500 student engineering lectures (CMM July 19 2019).
