Why this petition matters
Started by Gregor Kokal
This is a petition demanding a change of a decision made by The Political Science Programme Board. The decision is a set of policies which came into effect on the 4th of April, 2022. These policies restrict students to take their exams and re-takes online, and demand them to be physically present on the campus, with no exceptions related to coronavirus.
Such measures are problematic for students for the following reasons:
- They are potentially dangerous to students with pre-existing medical conditions because they accelerate the potential for them to contract covid.
- They are extremely time-consuming for the ones that will have to travel to the Netherlands from abroad.
- They impose severe costs on students and push them into an uncomfortable position, where they have to spend a lot of money to have their knowledge evaluated.
This petition demands a change in the set of decisions that came into effect on the 4th of April, 2022. To ensure a safe, non-stressful way of examining, a hybrid system should be provided for the last exam period in a year highly marked by the pandemic.
