No student of the University of the Philippines will get a failing mark this semester, the university's Office of the Student Regent said Thursday.
Grades of "4" or an incomplete mark, and "5" or a failed mark, will not be given, it said in a tweet.
"This is an initial victory for the UP student body as we continuously fight for the most inclusive and compassionate solutions for our education! UP, pakinggan ang UP community!" the OSR said.
