ESU is very concerned about the current situation in France.

For 12 weeks now, some University departments haven't organized any
courses due to a teachers strike also involving some students. This
situation may lead to the cancellation of exams and therefore of the
semester.

This situation is very preoccupying for all students, and especially
international students spending the semester in France, as well as
students coming from a lower socio-economic background who paid the
costs of studying for a whole semester, without any course.

Therefore, ESU calls on the French government to make room for a real
negotiation in the current context. Furthermore, ESU calls for the
concerned universities to use any practical way to organise courses so
that students don't lose their semester.
