With the new regulations, only authorized persons, including teaching staffs, students and those with essential duties on campus, are allowed to enter the university.
According to the announcement, unless visitors provide solid evidence proving the necessity of their entry, or have received 'special approval' from the Head of Department or the Student Affairs Office, their entry will not be permitted.
Visitors also need to obtain 'special approval' through the visitor registration system at least two working days before the visit. Teachers and students are required to re-apply for the approval though they have already registered to enter the school from November 6 until November 30.
