Supplemental Advisory (Updated March 23, 2020)

“Pursuant to the directives of the Office of the City Mayor of Baguio on enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) and in our effort to provide assistance to Louisian students who are non-Baguio residents and who are on home quarantine in their boarding houses and dormitories in the city, students concerned are advised to coordinate with their respective School Deans for their status and needed support to complement the rationing of food packs in their barangays.

The Guidance Center, SLU Sunflower Children’s Center, and the SLU Department of Psychology will also attend to students in need of support during this time.

Again, unless for essential reasons or emergency cases, everyone is urged to stay at home following the quarantine protocols for everyone’s safety.

School matters concerning the remainder of the current semester will be reasonably addressed upon resumption of classes.

Let us all pray to the Lord to increase our faith and to look kindly upon us during this time of need.”
