Ateneo de Manila University on Wednesday implemented special class arrangements for higher education students in anticipation of traffic disruptions caused by the ongoing Iglesia Ni Cristo gathering near the EDSA People Power Monument.

In an advisory, the university said it expects “significant traffic disruptions” along major roads leading to its Quezon City campus, including EDSA, Ortigas Avenue, and Katipunan Extension/White Plains Avenue.

“Balancing our commitment to rigorous academic formation with practical care for our community, the following arrangements will be implemented today, Wednesday, July 1, 2026,” the advisory read.

The university said classes scheduled from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. may shift to online, asynchronous or other alternative learning modes, subject to the discretion of faculty members.

Under the advisory, undergraduate and graduate classes will generally continue onsite, with students expected to inform their instructors if demonstrations or traffic congestion prevent them from reaching campus.

Ateneo said students remain responsible for completing academic requirements and making up missed coursework.

Faculty members were also urged to exercise flexibility and extend “due consideration” to students whose commutes are genuinely affected by the disruptions.

Professors facing similar difficulties were advised to coordinate with their department chairs or programme directors before shifting to synchronous online classes.

Meanwhile, Ateneo said its professional schools — including the Schools of Business, Government, Law, and Medicine and Public Health — will issue separate advisories, noting that their academic and clinical responsibilities vary.

“We thank you for your patience, flexibility and cooperation as we navigate this day together,” the university said.— MCG, GMA News
