Should uni lectures stay online next semester?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

The University of Waikato thinks so - although students will still be able to physically attend tutorials, workshops, seminars and lab classes.

Keeping the courses available for international students is said to be part of the reason for the decision.

Awkward moment

It was during my lunch break on the job, I had been texting the woman who owned the house I was redecorating, just clarifying a few things. While munching on sandwiches, I remembered that evening I was going to have a date with my beautiful wife. As I anticipated the evening with her, I conjured up a slightly suggestive text to let her know my feelings. But as soon as I pushed 'send' on my cell phone, I panicked, realising I had accidentally sent that intimate text to my client! I quickly sent her another one, apologizing profusely, explaining, "That last text was for my wife!" My client very understanding, but from that point on I could never quite look her in the eye! At least she knew I was very happily married, and she was happy with my painting work which is what really counts! Have you got a story more awkward than that? I'd love to hear any stories of your awkward moments on the job - or at home.
