The university officially approved both dates for the Rectors Days off. This outcome is a direct result of the pressure we applied collectively. Keep an eye on your email for the updated academic calendar.

Hi UVMP Students!



Recently we found out that our Rectors Day Off will be on the date of November 2nd. Many individuals at the University were hoping for it to be on October 29th instead due to accessibility for going home that weekend, as well as an influx of Credit Tests.



With this petition we are hoping to be able to get the Monday November 2nd as well as the October 29th off for Rectors Day, having it benefit everyone.



Once we get enough signatures we will send this to all the study offices in hopes of getting both of these days off

Updates

October 24, 2021

I have been hearing from many of you about how the current schedule makes traveling home or prepping for credit tests nearly impossible. Email the study office today to explain how this change helps your academic success. Let them know we need both dates off to fix this logistical gap.

The momentum behind this request shows the administration exactly how much these credit tests are weighing on us. Email your study office representatives today to demand they address this scheduling conflict before the month ends.

The travel situation is literally impossible as it is. Making us stay for a single day is just cruel when we have all these tests piling up.

This would help so many people traveling from abroad. November 2nd is way too late for a break.

PLEASE change the date. Being stuck in Kosice when we could be home with family for the weekend is total nonsense.

Too much stress right now. Two days off is the only fair way to fix this mess.

Seriously just give us the 29th. Everyone wants to go home to see their parents.

Need this time to actually study for credit tests instead of sitting in a lecture hall. Make it happen.
