On the initiative of Prof. Krob, a resolution was adopted on the recent case of a pre-suit appeal by Masaryk University students who feel affected by anti-epidemic measures:
The Academic Senate regrets the fact that students who felt negatively affected by the anti-epidemic measures of the University and the Faculty and were convinced that their rights and freedoms were threatened did not use the standard remedies, did not turn to their representatives in the Senate or to the Academic Senate as such and chose the path of media coverage, including the risk of litigation. The Academic Senate of the MU Faculty of Arts wishes to assure all members of the academic community, students, and teachers that it is ready to mediate with the faculty management in such cases and to support all legitimate demands.
