(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 16 - Higher Education Minister Gaetano
Manfredi said Wednesday that lessons will resume at universities
all over Italy on Monday.
Lessons at Italy's universities were halted in the early stages
of the COVID-19 pandemic in March.
"Lessons with students physically present are resuming in all of
the universities. Some have started and most will resume on
Monday," Manfredi told Sky TG 24.
"There is a mixed model in which lecture halls are 50% full and,
at the same time, there is distance learning for those living
out of town and foreigners and everyone else who cannot come to
class for various reasons.
"We have made it obligatory to wear facemasks, including during
the lessons.
"It's an annoyance, but the number of people on the lecture
halls is large". (ANSA).
