The Gozo University Group said that “as the only organisation representing the Gozitan students, after welcoming the news that the Gozo Campus will have a Pro-Rector managed to have a cordail meeting, with Prof. Friggieri.”

In this meeting GUG gave an overview of the current situation of the Gozitan Students and discussed what solutions should be achieved. “Prof. Friggieri was open to such proposals and insited on the importance of the continuous contact between GUG and the Gozo Campus.”

By the conclusion of this meeting GUG said that it “managed to reach an agreement on the following three vital points.”

1) A pilot project for the option of sitting for exams in Gozo will be held next June. Where a number of students from different courses will be have this opportunity. The aim of this is to be able to analyse all the logistical requirements for all the different courses. This option will then be offered to all students from the next academic year. This proposal was submitted in the beginning of this academic year and will be available for all Gozitan students by the next academic year.

2) From next October, Gozitan students will also have the option of submitting their assignments in Gozo instead of having to go to Malta just to submit an assignment.

3) The same applies for books which are borrowed from the University Library. Gozitan students do not need to go to Malta to give back the borrowed books but they can leave them at the Gozo Campus.
