| Memo from the college Registrar posted on Porters. |
Happiness could not be hidden on the students' faces who braved themselves to be on campus despite learning not taking place.
It is not known whether the lecturers have accepted the 25% salary increase offered by government. The Polytechnic lecturers started boycotting classes on 6th August 2012 demanding a 113% pay hike citing the recent devaluation of the kwacha as the mojor reason amongst other reasons.
Second Semester opened on 30th July and was supposed to finish on 9th November according to the Polytechnic academic calendar. It is obvious that the closing date will be extended to accommodate the seven weeks that has been lost due to the industrial action.
What lessons have been learnt from the devaluation of the kwacha?
