Notice on Campus Lockdown Measures Shortened (~April 5)

Since our first confirmed case of COVID-19 in Gonzaga Hall on March 25, 2021, all residents from Gonzaga Hall and Bellarmino Hall have been tested and we found only 8 confirmed cases while the others tested all negative. We also had a confirmed case where one of the assistants at Gonzaga Hall tested positive and thus all the staff at administrative team who have worked with the assistant have been tested and confirmed negative.

Although we should not be relived at this stage, considering the inconvenience and difficulties from our members due to campus lockdown measures, the COVID-19 committee has made the decision to push forward (shorten) campus lockdown period from April 9(Friday) to April 5(Monday), in addition to the below guidelines during the period.

- Only the members of Sogang Community can come on campus, with Sogang ID.(Must show ID at the gate to gain entry)

- Both pedestrians and cars can enter through the front gate.

- Pedestrians can enter through the back gate from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.(Cars still cannot use the back gate)

- Non-Sogang personnel/vehicles will still be locked out of the Sogang campus.

- Library access will continue to be adjusted according to government mandated social distancing levels.

If additional cases of COVID-19 are confirmed during Easter Break or over the weekend, campus will be locked down again, according to the originally announced plan. We kindly ask for your cooperation in order to bring back stability and safety on campus by following the prevention guidelines from the authorities.
