Dear Parents,
Kansai International University President
Chief of Crisis Response Headquarters
Atsushi Hamana
This is Hamana, the president of the university.Everyone, I think it's going to be a lot of trouble under the declaration of emergency, but are you doing well?Seeing the expressions on the faces of the students who came to school for face-to-face classes made me feel a little relieved.
Well, it's been 3 weeks until the extension deadline for the 1th emergency declaration.One week has passed since our university began conducting remote classes and face-to-face classes according to your registration.I would like to express my gratitude to all of you for continuing to pay attention to infection prevention measures in the midst of this inconvenience.
As of today, the number of staff members and students at our university who have tested positive for COVID-1 and are still undergoing treatment has decreased to one.The situation of new infections in both Hyogo and Osaka prefectures is also improving, and the state of emergency declaration will be lifted on the XNUMXth.I think that it should be welcomed that it is said that it is.
なお、6月7日から開始した対面授業には、3キャンパス合計で初日は対面受講登録者267人のうち175人（登録者の65.5％）、翌8日は登録者292人中108人（37.0％）だけが実際に登校し受講しました。登録者数でみて全学生の10％未満、実際の対面受講者は5％未満にとどまっている状況です。
〇 It is no longer possible to continue taking PCR tests, which was a prerequisite for face-to-face classes.
In the president's letter dated May 28, we announced that we would like those who wish to take face-to-face classes to take PCR tests four times in a row, as requested by the Cabinet Office. rice field.As a university, there is no limit on the number of students, and we have applied to the Cabinet Office in support of this initiative, on the premise that all students who wish to be tested will continue to be tested.There are more cooperating offices and universities than expected,We have received an interim report from the Cabinet Office that the start of the PCR test is likely to be delayed after June 6, but we have accepted that the delay in the start of the test is unavoidable.Some of the students and guardians have voiced their dissatisfaction and anxiety about the delay in the start of the inspection, but we are willing to make up for the delay by cooperating with the government and everyone's quarantine measures. bottom.but,In the evening of the 11th,From Mitsubishi Research Institute, which is entrusted with the work of the Cabinet Office,We received an unexpected message that we can only provide a total of 6 PCR test kits after June 28 (600 for 4 consecutive tests, 150 for 1 test).I have to say that the government's naive outlook is truly regrettable.
〇 We will change the conditions for attending classes in the future and accept changes to registration methods.
In response to this situation, we have no choice but to change the conditions for future enrollment.In addition, considering the fact that the number of new infections in Hyogo, Osaka, etc. is decreasing as mentioned above,We will accept changes to your course registration until June 6th.Specifically, we do not require continuous PCR testing as a condition of face-to-face attendance.about it.In the previous letter written by the president, we asked all those who wish to take face-to-face classes to accept the condition that they can continue to receive PCR tests.Some people thought that they could take classes with peace of mind, and some people thought that if they had to do something like that, they should take remote classes. If you can't ask for a PCR test, you may want to change to a face-to-face class. to change the registration ofWe would like to take this opportunity to ensure that your registrations match your actual behavior.
From now onThe conditions for attending classes may change in the future depending on future changes in the infection situation and government and prefectural policies after June 6th.As in the past, as a university,(XNUMX) While ensuring everyone's safety and security, (XNUMX) based on the basic policy of not delaying learning, and (XNUMX) safety is highly subjective, and there are individual differences in perception of the same situation.With this in mind, I would like to respect your independent judgment for the time being.
〇 We are considering opportunities for vaccination (for applicants) at the university.
As a university,600) Provide XNUMX PCR tests (prioritizing students who wish to take face-to-face classes) to the extent possible for students who wish to take them (testing at school), XNUMX) XNUMX, which the government is trying to promote We are considering whether it can be implemented for students and faculty members who wish to be vaccinated against COVID-XNUMX in units of more than one person or university.It is possible to obtain the cooperation of faculty members of the Faculty of Health Sciences, etc., but the conditions for implementation, such as securing cooperating doctors and medical institutions to respond to medical interviews and side reactions, are not easy. We would like to inform you that we are making inquiries and preparations.
We will continue to respond flexibly to changes in the situation, but we ask that you listen to information and notices from our university and make appropriate decisions.
Dear students,We ask for your cooperation in this survey as well.We will do our best to resume face-to-face classes as soon as possible so that you can concentrate on your studies.We ask for your continued understanding and cooperation.
