The model would see students allowed to study in person or online if they're unable to secure accommodation
(Source: www.pixabay.com)Trinity College Dublin Students Union are calling for a 'hybrid learning model' due to housing shortages in the capital.
They've written a letter to Trinity College management to consider the proposal.
The model would see students allowed to study in person or online if they're unable to secure accommodation.
Welfare and Equality Officer, Chloe Staunton, explains their motivation for the move:
"In our letter, we just acknowledge that a lot of students are really really struggling for accommodation. So we've seen a rise in casework of students not being able to find anything.
"They've exhausted all resources in terms of finding accommodation.
"We wanted to present this hybrid model, just as a short-term solution for those students who might not be able to move to Dublin for their courses but would like to continue their education."
