Mine starts on Monday 24th.

I think it's because my uni has 16 week semesters, but a lot of others have 15 week semesters.

Mine started in January/February, and the second one in July. You didn't say what country you're talking about, so.....

1st Sept. and there's a rumour it may be delayed because a neighbouring university is shut down for 2 weeks due to the Swine Flu and apparently ours may follow suit.

I think all the universities should be closed until March, just to be safe ^^

Was anyone here teaching in the 80s-90s when the students were rioting all the time and the universities were pretty much closed all the time? That must have been an easy life..(except for the tear gas)

Second semester starts on Aug. 24th at the university that I work at, though we finish Dec. 10th, which is about a week earlier than usual.
