    yay
    To all Students of Cork Institute of Technology including CIT Cork School of Music, CIT Crawford College of Art & Design and the National Maritime College of Ireland





    National Industrial Dispute – Cork Institute of Technology





    The Institute has been advised by IMPACT, SIPTU, TUI and UNITE that one day of industrial action will take place on Tuesday 24 November 2009 by staff represented by these Unions. The action will take place from midnight 23 November to midnight 24 November 2009.



    As a consequence of this action, please note that there will be no classes, laboratories, workshops or other academic activity in CIT on Tuesday 24 November next.



    In the interests of Health & Safety, access by students to CIT campuses other than the NMCI and CIT Cork School of Music will not be possible.





    Specifically:



    Bishopstown Campus, CIT Crawford College of Art & Design, Northpoint



    NO ACCESS





    NMCI & CIT Cork School of Music



    Because access to the NMCI and the CIT Cork School of Music is the responsibility of the Facility Management companies at these locations, please note the following:



    NMCI



    The Library will remain open, but all other “academic” areas will be closed



    CIT CSM



    The Library will be closed, but student access to all other areas will be provided by the Facility Management company





    All students are requested to take note of this access information



    Dr Barry O’Connor



    Registrar and Vice President for Academic Affairs

    To be honest it's all a bit stupid. Lecturers are getting huge pay and some can hardly lecture.

    Monday will probably be a bust as well. Most students that went home will more than likely stay there til Tuesday night.

    Hmm...maybe I should chance staying an extra hour in bed Monday and actually be able to get parking Monday morning at a reasonable time...may take the risk.

    So er...do we still have Tuesday off? http://www.rte.ie/news/2009/1122/weather.html I'm guessing no. But I was gonna stay at home till Tuesday evening. :(

    Hmm...not sure what going happen now. Lots of students may not bother coming in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,283 ✭✭✭Glico Man


    Until I get an email from CIT saying otherwise, I'm staying at home to catch up on my reading for my dissertation.

    I have to go in tomorrow so I can print a load of stuff...free printing in my computer lab so happy days:D

    that rte link seems to say the unions have given permission to people working in certain areas to work on i.e people who are directly invlolved i.e nurses or outdoor council workers . Guess we will have to wait and see tommorow

    Being honest haven't a clue but staff haven't got an email either advising of changes. Some of the news websites say all SITPU/TEEU/IMPACT staff in Cork/Galway and others say staff working in relief efforts / medical staff.

    It's just people that are involved with flooding afaik. Fire brigade, Councel etc etc.
