MANILA--Colleges and universities must "adjust their policies" for students and elderly faculty members who are wary of going to school during the coronavirus crisis, Commission on Higher Education chair Prospero De Vera said Friday.
"They must adjust their policies, like maximum residency, to make sure that children can continue their education," he added, noting that universities and colleges were already informed of the rule.Senator Sonny Angara asked De Vera keep a close eye on schools that will penalize deprived students who cannot enrol.
The CHED has directed schools in its jurisdiction to offer online or hybrid courses to limit the exposure of student, faculty and personnel to the highly contagious disease.
