Students tired of bickering

SALATIGA, Central Java: Students at the conflict-ridden Satya
Wacana Christian University continued boycotting classes
yesterday to press their demands for settlement of the dispute.

The students are from the School of Engineering, School of
Agriculture, School of Biology, School of Sciences and
Mathematics, School of Teaching and Education and the post-
graduate program in Development Studies.

The boycott was supported by the director of the postgraduate
program, deans of the five schools as well as deans from the
School of Law and the School of Theology.

The students have been absent from classes since last week in
protest over the dismissal of Arief Budiman, a popular lecturer
at the university.

The only department which does not support the boycott is the
School of Economics.(har/sim)
