Chosun University President Min Young-don Checks On-Campus Quarantine Management Status

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Min Young-don, President of Chosun University, visited each college to directly inspect the quarantine management situation.

According to Chosun University on the 12th, as in-person lectures for experimental and practical subjects have begun, the entrances of each university building are controlled to one point to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and temperature checks are conducted using a self-produced fever check kit.

Those who pass the temperature check are marked with a sticker on the back of their hand, and an entry log is also maintained. Lecturers conduct temperature checks before the start of their classes.

Thermal cameras have been installed at the entrances of the College of Engineering (1 Engineering Building), the Main Building, and the College of Fine Arts and Physical Education, where student traffic is heavy. To facilitate smooth entry, text messages reminding students to arrive 30 minutes before class and to wear masks are sent out.

Classrooms, practice rooms, and dormitories are intensively managed through disinfection at least once a day.

In case of suspected patients, they are guided to the waiting room for suspected patients located on the first floor of the International Hall parking lot, and immediate response will be made through the Chosun University Health Clinic.

President Min inspected the fever check stations at the entrances of the College of Engineering, College of Fine Arts and Physical Education, College of Natural Sciences, and College of Medicine, as well as the hygiene and quarantine status of classrooms where practical and experimental subjects are conducted.

He then had lunch with the Student Council (President Kim Jun-yeon) at the on-campus cafeteria ‘Solmaru,’ which has transparent partitions installed to prevent the spread of COVID-19, along with headquarters directors and department heads, listening to students’ opinions.

Student Ryu Kyung said, “There is some inconvenience, such as not being able to hear conversations with friends well because of the partitions, but I think it must be endured to practice ‘social distancing.’ At least, since it is an on-campus cafeteria, it helps reduce anxiety a little while eating.”

President Min stated, “To alleviate concerns of students and parents about in-person classes, please carry out thorough hygiene management and quarantine. Although it is a difficult situation, we will do our best in quarantine management so that enrolled students can smoothly continue their studies and university life.”
