COVID-19: Professor Adam Habib addresses students
[WATCH] Professor Adam Habib, Wits Vice-Chancellor and Principal, speaks on living through the COVID19 pandemic and the Senior Executive Team’s (SET) decisions to go into early recess and to evacuate residences, following the advice of experts in infectious diseases.
The target date for Wits to reopen is 20 April 2020, but this is dependent on how the pandemic evolves. The mode in which the second block will open is likely to be online and students are thus advised to prepare to go online. Professor Habib addresses issues related to the digital divide, on access to smart mobile devices and data, and Wits University’s agreements with ICT providers to zero-rate sites. Wits has reached out to broadcasting houses to determine if they can provide a solution to reach 10% of Wits’ students who do not have access to smart mobile devices. This figure is based on the results of a comprehensive biographical questionnaire conducted annually by Wits.
