There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more. - George Gordon Byron

Social Distancing

The mayor of the City of Baguio have issued Executive Order No. 60, s.2020 (An order suspending classes in the City of Baguio from 13 March 2020 to 22 March 2020 in all levels for public and private schools) yesterday.  This is in response to President Duterte's Proclamation No. 922 declaring a State of Public Health Emergency throughout the Philippines.

We are all currently encouraged to do some social distancing as a precautionary measure against COVID-19.

Because of this, I won't be able to meet my classes for several meetings.  There has been no final announcement as to whether the schedule of midterm exams will be moved or not.  But in the message we were sent late yesterday,  midterm exams will still be on March 24 to 27.  If that is the case, then my lessons and other activities will have to be uploaded for my students to access.
