Assistance during Covid-19
Wow what a year we’ve had… a challenging year by all accounts and
with no end in sight.
The 2020-2021 academic year invites us to continue these many
challenges, but also opportunities …
And as we bravely stood this past year, we will continue to stand
bravely in the coming year and emerge stronger as a result of the
current crisis.
The Dean of Students is charged with looking after the well-being
of students. We worked effectively, are working and will continue to
work around the clock in order to assist students with challenges they
encounter, including coping with online studies (both in terms of study
method and in terms of lack of technological conditions essential for
learning), financial difficulties due to the closures forced upon us all,
emotional struggles while coping with Covid-19, learning and more.
The Dean’s Office sent out a number of letters to students in both
Hebrew and Arabic about the assistance the department provides
