The University of Uruguay (Udelar) has extended the suspension of classes until Saturday following an attempted femicide at the Faculty of Medicine in Uruguay. The decision to prolong the suspension was made unanimously by the Central Governing Council of Udelar. While classes are cancelled, the university will be hosting “exchange and reflection” activities during the suspension period. The initial suspension was enacted immediately after the violent incident at the Faculty of Medicine. Details regarding the nature of the “exchange and reflection” activities have not yet been released. The university aims to provide a space for the community to process the event and discuss related issues. The decision underscores the seriousness with which Udelar is treating the situation and prioritizes the well-being of its students and staff.
