Student demonstration in support of public service media at UJEP

On Tuesday 3 November 2026, from 12:00 to 13:30, a student demonstration in support of public service media will take place on University Square in front of the CPTO building.

The management of Jan Evangelista Purkyně University has publicly endorsed the position of the Presidium of the Czech Rectors’ Conference (ČKR) regarding the funding of public service media. The management of the Faculty of Science at UJEP also endorses this position and supports civic engagement.

Participation in the demonstration is voluntary. Students who, of their own free will, wish to take part will be excused from classes at the specified time. However, this exemption does not automatically mean that missed classes or study assessments will be waived.

Making up for missed classes and any academic obligations will be arranged in consultation with the relevant lecturer, who will determine the appropriate method taking into account the nature of the course. This applies in particular to laboratory sessions, tests and field trips.

We recommend that students agree on any make-up arrangements with their lecturers in advance.

Classes for other students will take place as normal according to the timetable. Participation in or absence from the demonstration must not constitute an advantage or disadvantage for any student.
