Academic Activities At 1971
Governor Tikka Khan ordered department heads to join work from 21 April and the other teachers on 1June. According to his order, classes must be started from 2 August. All the dormitories were cleaned to remove any signs of destruction to show a quite fine educational environment at the university to the international communities. All exams were postponed due to the national crisis. Attendance in the class was to minute at that period. Interestingly, as the forces of war increased until September, attendance in the classes also increased. As many students had joined the Mukti Bahini (liberation force), they blasted hand grenades near the university and quickly entered classes. This is why the army failed to arrest any one.

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or activities:
“If twins are believed to be less intelligent as a class than single-born children, it is not surprising that many times they are also seen as ripe for social and academic problems in school. No one knows the extent to which these kind of attitudes affect the behavior of multiples in school, and virtually nothing is known from a research point of view about social behavior of twins over the age of six or seven, because this hasn’t been studied either.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
