Students will once again be able to "eat on site" in university restaurants "in the days to come", Minister of Higher Education Frédérique Vidal announced on Friday.
The discomfort and lack of socialization of some students has been worrying for several weeks.
The Minister of Higher Education announced that students would be able to return to university restaurants.
Until now, only take-out was possible in "U restaurants", which have been gradually reopening for a week with the students returning to college partially.
Two weeks ago, the Head of State announced that all students could have access to two meals a day for the price of one euro in these restaurants, in order to better cope with the consequences of the Covid-19.
Until now, the one-euro meal was only offered to scholarship students, once a day.
