DU Live: Dhaka University has reopened its residential halls for all students after a year-and-a-half of a pandemic-induced shutdown. First, second, and third-year students with identity cards and proof of vaccination were allowed in from 8 am on Sunday in the second phase of reopening.
Earlier, in the first phase, honors fourth year and master’s students were let into the halls on a priority basis.
Preparations have been made to welcome back the students with flowers and chocolates like the first phase, said Prof Abdul Bashir, the chairman of the provost standing committee, reports bdnews24.com.
“There are handwashing stations at the entrances of every hall and the body temperatures of students are being measured."

The university's Provost Standing Committee has set up standard operating procedures to guide students amid the pandemic. The university will conduct in-person classes and examinations for all students from Oct 17.
