Technion update

Shalom,
Based on the assessment conducted this evening and in line with the instructions from the Home Front Command, the Technion management has decided on the following measures:

• Activities at the Technion campuses in Haifa will proceed tomorrow, Sunday, October 15, 2023, in a manner consistent with operations from last Sunday to Wednesday.
• We request that Deans, department managers, graduate student advisors, and principal investigators maintain communication with faculty members, graduate students, and research teams. We also encourage flexibility in permitting work-from-home options. Special consideration will be given to parents with young or school-aged children, as well as to spouses of faculty and students who have been called to the reserves.
• The summer camp for children of academic and administrative staff, originally scheduled to begin tomorrow, will now be postponed to Tuesday, October 17, 2023.

As recent days have shown, circumstances can change rapidly. Should there be any further changes to these guidelines, additional updates will be provided.

Wishing for peaceful days ahead.
