Rejected petition Create a law to reimburse students when lessons are cancelled due to strikes.
There is soon to be a national strike in where all universities across the country, in one way or another, will be disrupted as a result.
In order to make strikes more fair to students, it is time we are given refunds on lectures and seminars for the disruptions the strikes may cause.
More details
In some cases, students will not know if their lectures are cancelled until they have arrived on campus, this is unfair as many students will have spent money on transportation
The term “lessons” should be an inclusive term to define lectures and seminars.
