I know I'm probably a bit behind on the news, but I've only just heard about this. I'm in my final year of an undergraduate degree, and am worried about how this will affect me. If it goes ahead it will almost certainly lead to delays in my final exams being marked. I have heard from people I know at other universities that they have been told it could delay their graduation, as exams will not be marked on time.
What are the implications of this for those wanting to go onto post-grad study or have employment offers conditional on certain grades? (I know no-one can say for sure, but...) Are there other potential implications for students?
My university has yet to say anything to students about this. I am hoping this means they intend to try to resolve the dispute before it goes ahead.
I guess I am looking for information on this thread as I am worried, rather than a debate about the rights/wrongs of the strike. I do support the lecturer's right to strike but just worried about how this might affect students.
