DOZENS of students staged a picket at Queen's University in Belfast yesterday in protest over a shake-up that will see schools merged.
A controversial plan approved by the university will also see entry grades for degree courses increase to a minimum of an A and two Bs.
There has already been one rally against the approval of the `institutional shape and size review' document, during which students protested outside a meeting of the senate.
Yesterday, dozens staged a `teach-in' protest.
Seán Fearon, campaigns officer at Queen's Students' Union, said the size and shape review would have a damaging impact on staff and students.
"The protest has been branded the `teach-in', as staff will provide pop-lectures to students from all backgrounds about the danger in which their subject area has been placed," he said.
"The teach-in will act as an educational and cultural appreciation event, particularly of those schools under immediate threat due to the size and shape review - English, sociology and anthropology.
"This is a huge process that was carried out without meaningful consultation."
