Most public schools have reopened, without mask-wearing, and reduced social distances; however, University students are being told that lectures will have to be online when there are more space and opportunity for social distancing in University campuses and lecture halls.
Many people are struggling with financials as they have lost jobs due to the pandemic. Therefore, we want reductions in fees, in both tuition and rent/accommodation or we want increased loans.
