Cost of Education Protest Weds 24th Nov
Join us on Wednesday 24th of November for the Galway F*ck The Fees protest about the cost of education. If you are fed up with high fees, the rising cost of living, the soaring price of accommodation and the underinvestment in higher education then join us to demand action to end this crisis.
We will be meeting outside Áras na Mac Léinn at 1.30pm on Wednesday 24th of November and marching to Spanish Arch for 2pm.
- FEES: The Republic of Ireland has the highest student fees in the EU. Higher Education Students in Northern Ireland pay even more, on average
- HOUSING: Rents over €1,000 per room/month. Designated student accommodation being ‘redesignated’ for the wealthy. Increasing competition with young professionals for scarce beds.
- INVESTMENT: If the government cared about higher education, they’d invest in research, teaching and the student experience. The experience of students in Ireland in recent years is of neglect and indifference.
Angry yet? Make your voice heard on Wednesday 24th of November. More info here.
