Haaretz: University heads: Semester may be canceled if student strike continues

University heads released Tuesday a statement saying that the continuation of the student strike puts the “existence of the [current] semester in danger.”

In the statement, the university heads’ committee wrote that they decided to lengthen the semester in order to compensate for lost time during the strike.

The students have been striking for two weeks.
