Students boycott exams, classes
The students of Environmental Science department at Jahangirnagar University (JU) yesterday boycotted their final examinations and classes and locked the department's classrooms protesting the extreme shortage of classrooms and lack of other facilities in the department.
They demanded a permanent building for the department including adequate classrooms, exam halls, teachers' room, seminar and library rooms, toilets and other facilities. They also threatened to launch a tougher movement if their demands are not met.
Several teachers and students said about 200 students under six batches are studying in this department but they have only three classrooms while one of those three rooms is being used as library of the department.
