After a
strike that spanned more than two weeks, the University of New Brunswick
is cancelling the March Reading Week pending approval by the Academic
Senates so students can make up for lost time.
Classes will also
be extended until April 17, so that students can finish the Winter term
and have the opportunity to graduate on time. The exam period will now
be April 22-30, including exams on April 27. The university says this
arrangement will mean only four teaching days are lost and the summer
term can start as scheduled.
All
tuition and fees are now due by 4:30pm this upcoming Friday for both
undergraduate and graduate students. Classes start back up on Monday
after a tentative deal with the union representing faculty. The
university is posting updates here.
