Petition Action

We need changes when it comes to the universities during the pandemic.

Petition Details

We want the government to let us students attend our university lectures on the campus as normal if not the fees for the courses must decrease by a certain percentage.

Additional Information

We want to attend our lectures on the campus as normally since our university social life has been taken away from us unfortunately because of the pandemic. My question is why are most of the working places, primary and secondary schools are normally open in which there is a much higher risk of contamination than universities? That's why we want these changes. If these changes can't be applied to this situation then we think that it would be sensible to decrease the courses' fees by a certain proportion according to the situation and negotiations
