Referendum on Teaching Time

The current ITU policy is that lectures must end 10 minutes before scheduled time. Another concept is the so-called Academic Quarter where lectures begin 15 minutes after scheduled time.

Which do you prefer?

Board of Studies heads a referendum on the topic. All students and members of faculty are encouraged to vote.

The vote is anonymous, and Board of Studies is obliged to implement the majority vote as new policy.
