Earlier this year, the management and HiMolde released information and travel advice due to the outbreak of the corona virus. On Campus, posters has been hung up and new AntiBac dispensers have been installed on toilets and at the front doors.

The emergency response team met this week to review the college's pandemic plan. We urge students and staff to pay a special attention to the following:
