Reconsider online learning decision


ON May 26, the Higher Education Ministry announced that online classes for colleges and universities will continue throughout the rest of the year until Dec 31. This is to fight the spread of Covid-19.

While there is good reason to extend online learning initiatives, I feel that students should have a say in whether they continue their studies online or in physical classrooms. Students might have preferences depending on their situations. For example, students who are back in their hometowns will want to join online classes while others who are in hostels might want physical classes since they live close to campus.
