Cancel Trimesters
We the undersigned demand UNSW Management CANCEL TRIMESTERS. We demand a mid-term break, longer exam stuvac, and reduced workloads for students and staff. We say no to online learning, no to quantitive benchmarks for staff, and no to 'Fit to Sit'. We demand a return to faculty-based student support.
Why is this important?
After a term of trimesters, it is clearer than ever that this change is detrimental to UNSW staff and students. Students cannot learn effectively under such tight time constraints, and our teachers are struggling with the increased workload. UNSW management should be more concerned with the wellbeing of its students and its workers than the size of their profits. We the undersigned call on UNSW Management to CANCEL TRIMESTERS.
