The government has agreed to fulfill a majority of the demands of students that have been protesting in Belgrade over the last several days. However, a group of students that are still not content with the agreement has announced that it would continue with a radicalization of the protests, while the Education Ministry has called on them to focus on their studies instead. Govt. to meet majority of student demands The government has agreed to five of the six demands of the Belgrade University students. Education Minister Zarko Obradovic called on students to return to their studies, and confirmed for B92 that all faculties will receive information on the government decision for relaxation of registration for the coming year on Monday. During the week, the Ministry will pass the added quotas for Master’s studies and the problem with heating in the universities will be solved in cooperation with the city of Belgrade. The only demand that was not met is the one related to collective registration. “By law, in order to register for a school year you must pass courses that will total 48 points. Last year, we changed the law in agreement with the deans and students. It was then said that 48 points is the right measure. The statistics that at least half of the students are following that trend shows that we are on the right path for implementing Bologna in our education system. If we agreed on violating the law, and register students that did not pass enough courses, that would be a great step backwards,” Obradovic said. (Beta)

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
