Nearly 132 students, mostly of Indian origin, took to the streets last week when all of them failed in one subject of IT graduation course Techniques of a system analyst at the Algoma University, Canada. Why? Unfair exam assessment, the students alleged. This is not the first time that Indian students have received a failing grade in one specific subject taught by one specific professor, Algoma University students have alleged. “This is a money-making technique. They know that students will get scared and will have to reappear for that subject, which means they will have to pay an additional exam or semester fee. They are generating money by such petty tricks,” Mandeep, convenor of Montreal Youth Students Organisation (MYSO) The MYSO has been supporting the students over the alleged unfair exam assessment. It’s now been nearly 10 days since Indian students in Ontario have been protesting against the university.
