On October 7, 平特五不中, AMPL, the Association of 平特五不中 Professors of Education, and the Association of 平特五不中 Professors of the Faculty of Arts announced they had reached an agreement to a new path forward for negotiating university-wide working conditions for their member professors, officially ending the strike by AMPL.
We thank students and colleagues for their continued patience as academic and administrative activities resume.

When is the 鈥淎dd/Drop鈥� period for courses affected by the strike? How can I add the Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory option to a suspended course?
- The Office of the Provost and Executive Vice-President (Academic) and the Office of the University Registrar and Executive Director of Enrolment Services have worked closely with us to allow听an exceptional "Add/Drop" period. Please read this policy carefully for important information about the revised "Add/Drop" process and applicable deadlines:听
Law Fall 2024 Exceptional Add/Drop Policy听 - The exceptional 鈥淎dd/Drop鈥� period began on October 3 and the period for requesting changes will run until October 9, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. Changes can only be applied manually by Student Affairs Office staff; students cannot add/drop courses themselves on Minerva. Please use the Fall 2024 Exceptional Add/Drop Course Change Form to submit your changes and/or to add the S/U option to a course.听It may take up to two weeks to complete these changes.
