Dear Sir,

Thanks a lot for sharing this information. I wish if these information was shared with the students especially with the DL students on time. In order to be effecient I propose that in the future information like these should be shared on time.
The topic taught in this semester are not upoaded timely and we could not receive them so
again we all ( DL students) are candidates to failure once again.

Thanks

Thanks a lot
