响应卫生部旅游警示 三大学暂停韩国交换生计划

防范引入武汉冠状病毒(Covid-19),新加坡国立大学(NUS)、南洋理工大学(NTU)以及新加坡管理大学(SMU)暂停了和韩国的所有交换学生计划。

韩国总统文在寅周日(23日)宣布,已经将该国针对冠状病毒的警戒级别提升到“严重”水平,而我国卫生部周日也发布旅游警示,呼吁国民避免前往被韩国列为“重灾区”的大邱市与清道郡。

紧急召回留韩学生

国大发言人则告知《亚洲新闻台》,将配合卫生部旅游警示至到另行通知。“校方已经向受影响的学生提供援助,目前正在安排尚在韩国留学的我国学生尽快回国。”

国大正在为受影响的学生探索其他的课程安排,例如帮助他们获得当地的实习机会。“学生还可以在这学期申请隔离假期,大学将在夏季学期帮助他们确保学习模块,并且不会要求额外学费。”

他补充说,若有必要,校方还会采取进一步的预防措施。

新加坡管理大学指出,所有与韩国进行的交流学生计划已经暂停,即时生效。“我们将继续和韩国的伙伴大学合作,接受官方咨询指导,并在必要时根据受影响学生的喜好和要求,提供替代安排。”

“我们学生、教职员的安全和福祉是校方的重中之重,我们将为他们提供最佳的职员。”

和韩国伙伴大学达成协议

南洋理工大学指出,数家韩国合作大学指出当地发生冠状病毒疫情,因此希望推迟所有的交流活动。“南大将和韩国伙伴大学展开类似合作,已推迟所有交换留学生计划,直至另行通知。”

发言人表示,该校也正在探索保险索赔事件,并在适用的情况下为学生提供索赔建议。“南大各科系都在帮助受影响学生,为他们提供其它选项,如为学生在5至8月期间提供有学分的实习和课程,学生们也能够在下个学期或以后,申请参与海外交流或实习。”

学生反应有褒有贬

原本将于上周日晚上,和三名友人一起飞往韩国首尔的西江大学(Sogang University)进行交换计划的南大学生Dylan Ting,在登机前一刻才知晓有关暂停计划的措施。

23岁的他表示,他们在晚上10时准备进入候机室时,其中一名友人发现来自南大邮件,通知他们暂停有关的交换计划。 “我们被迫向航空公司报告,拿回我们的行李”。“基本上,南大(说)写道,若你还没有抵达当地,就不要去;若你已经抵达该处,就尽快飞回来。我认为他们的重点,是让我们安全地(留在)新加坡。”

他指出,新加坡大学的新学期已经开始,而他可能这个学期必须进行居家隔离,因此对未来感到有些“迷茫”。“如果进行(家中隔离)了,要么我们以超负荷学习来完成四年(学习课程),或者要耗费一个学期才能毕业。”

他认为校方已经尽快采取行动,“因为有关的旅游警示刚刚发布不久,他们就尽快通知我们了。只是我们仍然不确定会发生什么事情,因为还没有做出任何决定。”

除了Dylan,还有另一名理工大学女学生也在脸书群组NTU Confessions上帖文埋怨,要出发前六小时才获悉取消交换学生计划,导致自己不知所措。

她在帖文中表示,“我没有其他的学分要修,而现在已经是学期的半途了。”

帖文一出,立刻吸引多名参与交换学生计划的学生做出回应,纷纷抱怨,然而也有学生认同校方的措施,认为在此非常时期,注重学生的健康是非常明智的选择。
