The University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) finally called off their strike to back demands for unpaid allowances and pay rise. The strike lasted from October 1st-22nd and almost resulted in the university shutting down for the semester if it had lasted over 21 days.
All lectures will resume on Monday. Because of the strike, the academic calendar has been extended. The full-time students will begin taking their exams in mid-December until early January and will begin their winter break in early January and will begin their spring semester a few weeks later. Do to contract agreements, the foreign students will take their exams separate from the full-time students and will have no exams held after December 11th. A new final exam schedule will be coming out soon for both the foreign and full-time students.
