Third time’s the charm
The University’s response to recent yo-yoing between alert levels has not come under scrutiny from students. This is a far-cry from the student reaction during the first Covid outbreak.
Critic spoke to Andrew Ferguson, the University’s Emergency and Business Continuity Coordinator, about the Uni’s response to last week’s transition to alert level two. Andrew said preparation commenced around 9:30pm Saturday night, half an hour after the Prime Minister’s live announcement, with staff working all weekend to allow the transition. It is unclear if any staff missed out on Electric Ave to stay and do their duties.
