Beginning on Monday July 6 onward, we will be partly easing restrictions for on-campus activities. To coincide with this, we are announcing the following basic rules for preventing the spread of infection while on campus. Please note however, that individual additions to these rules may occur, please observe these rules and ensure that you are taking all required precautions.

∗ These rules may be periodically updated and revised.

1. Health management and actions

1. Make sure that those who are not feeling well do not participate. Please make sure that you do not come to campus if you have a fever, respiratory symptoms, malaise, any other symptoms of a cold, or olfactory or taste disorder.
   Even if you have received permission to enter the campus you will be unable to enter the campus with any of the above symptoms.
2. Wear a mask at all times. When working outside our under high temperature, take alternative measures. If you cannot find a mask, please contact the Health Center in advance.
3. Do not stay on campus for longer than required. When you have finished your task please leave the campus.
