The EPART, with President Wang as Chief Executive Officer, has ordered a thorough review on all measures, including academic courses, traveling history investigation, safety and health care maintenance, and Chinese degree students returning to school procedures, in light of epidemic prevention for every professor, staff, worker, and student.
