CCH Sur Reopens for Safety Walkthroughs, In-Person Classes Still on Hold

Community members insist on completing pending safety upgrades before any date is set.

Overview

  • Guided tours by semester run Nov. 24–26 so students, families and teachers can verify security changes and available support services.
  • On the first morning, 1,476 students and more than 400 parents joined the walkthroughs, according to university officials.
  • New measures include 15 turnstiles with metal detectors, 70 cameras, 50 emergency buttons, 120 meters of perimeter fencing and 271 lights.
  • UNAM says the next phase starts Nov. 27 with activities focused on physical and emotional health, including vaccination and preventive care.
  • Parents and students argue a quick return is premature, citing incomplete lighting works and insufficient security staffing at a campus of nearly 12,000.
