明天起， 悉尼的大学校园里恢复人气生机
悉尼晨锋报报道
随着教职员工明天返回办公室，麦觉理大学（Macquarie University'）将恢复生机， 几乎三分之二的学生将恢复面对面学习。
随着春季学期的开始，讲课将继续上网课，然而许多专题报告，讨论会和小组活动学生将亲自参加，教职工也预计返回办公室上班。
副校长Bruce Dowton在一份声明中告诉学生：“我们预计60%的学生愿意在第二学期恢复面对面的学习活动。”
从周一开始， 悉尼理工大学（UTS）也将让学生回学校上课，虽然人数比麦觉理大学少。
副校长Shirley Alexander说，“我们最好的估计是不足10%的学生将返回校园参加那些正式的学习活动。”她说，大学将优先考虑那些课程需要主动学习的学生，例如需要工作室和实验室的人。
以前容纳350人的教室现在限制到50人，学生要登记出席，尤其在保持合适的社交距离有困难的时候，需要口罩的人将发给口罩。
大学也将雇佣学生充当新冠病毒的监督员，确保在走廊里能保证遵守社交距离。上课时间也缩短避免人群聚集，以便进行清洁。
有些科目，专业老师可以选择网上上课或面对面给学生上课。
悉尼大学推迟开学3个星期，在8月24日开学。大多数讲课将在网上进行，专题讲座，专题报告，小组项目将恢复面对面教学。
由于新冠疫情形势的变化，新州大学（University of NSW）暂停了返回校园上课的申请，没有批准和培训，老师和学生不允许出现在校园里。

原文如下
It's masked, monitored and sanitised, but life is returning to Sydney's university campuses
Life will return to Macquarie University's campus from Monday, as staff return to the office and almost two-thirds of students return to face-to-face learning.
As the spring semester begins, lectures will continue to be held online but many tutorials, seminars and small group activities will be held in person, and staff will be expected to head back to the office for part of the working week.
We expect around 60 per cent of students will elect to return to face-to-face learning activities on campus in Session 2," Vice Chancellor Bruce Dowton told students in a statement.
The University of Technology Sydney will also begin bringing students back from Monday, albeit in smaller numbers than Macquarie.
Shirley Alexander, Vice Chancellor (Education and Students), said the university would give priority to students whose courses require active learning, such as subjects requiring studios and laboratories. "Our best estimate is that less than 10 per cent will be on campus for those formal learning activities," she said.
Lecture theatres that once held 350 might now be limited to 50, students will have to register their attendance, and masks will be given to those who want them, especially in classes where keeping appropriate social distance is difficult.
The university will employ students - many of whom have lost their part-time hospitality jobs - to work as COVID monitors, and ensure social distancing is observed in its corridors. Students will have to register their attendance, and classes will be cut short so crowds do not gather and cleaning can take place.
In some subjects, academics have been able to choose whether to deliver content online only, or offer students a face-to-face option.
"There are some subjects where we know students really want to come back onto campus," Professor Alexander said. "They have been able to register for either an online or face to face tutorial, but we are keeping a close eye on that.
"People keep asking me for certainty, but I just don't know. If we get an outbreak next week, we'll go back online. If we go back to zero cases, we'll start reopening the campus again."
Nikola Balnave, from the Macquarie University chapter of the National Tertiary Education Union, said staff had mixed feeling about returning to campus, especially as the COVID outbreak in Victoria grows. "There's a high level of anxiety amongst a number of staff, depending on their own individual circumstances," she said.
"Academic staff are now being told that they need to do a certain proportion of teaching face to face on campus.
"My concern is that people's health and safety is being brought down to who their manager is, some are approaching it a humane and compassionate way, and understanding the concern of staff, and others are taking a black and white approach."
Sam Silcock, president of the students' association at UTS, said students were demanding the campus close when COVID cases first proliferated in March. But then they found the online learning experience was "vastly inferior" to in-person learning.
"It was no fault of the university, they just missed having that ability to engage with conversation, and a base level of social interaction to develop ideas," he said.
"I think things might be even worse than when we initially closed, in terms of how many new [COVID] cases, but people still seem quite eager to get out of an online space, especially for those subjects that require physical learning."
Sydney University has delayed the beginning of second semester by three weeks until August 24. Most lectures will remain online, but seminars, tutorials, workshops and small group projects will return to face-to-face teaching.
"We'll continue in a mixed-mode delivery, to cater for both our student community in Australia and abroad," a spokeswoman said. Staff will begin returning under a rostering system from July 27, which is likely to involve two to three days on campus each.
The University of NSW has temporarily paused approval of new applications to return to campus while the COVID-19 situation changes in NSW, and students and staff must not be on campus without approval and training.
