Abstract: The Covid-19 pandemic has a tremendous impact on the life of people from around the world in almost every way. We are taking this situation very seriously and we acknowledge and fully support the various travel and public gathering restrictions to help slow down the spread of the virus. The purpose of this study is to provide the most suitable solutions for Romanian Higher Education System in order to tackle this global crisis. In light of these new circumstances, we feel obligated to let our academic network know how we are addressing this challenge while continuing to support all of our professors, students, staff, with the aim of maximizing the safety of our community at large. To ensure the safety of peoples, some of our academic activities are held in an interactive, live online setting, thanks to the possibility of using our elearning platform: Microsoft Teams. Secondly, all community collaboration activities were moved in on-line, in order to avoid any possible health risk regarding the Covid-19 outbreak. This paper aims to represent a reflection on current academia reality, as the coronavirus situation evolves, because the COVID-19 crisis moves faster than decision-makers, and under these circumstances, re-thinking Higher Education System becomes a priority.
