Updated: 2006-05-29 15:48 DHAKA, May 29 - A Bangladesh
university has postponed exams until after the World Cup finals after hundreds
of students lay siege to the vice-chancellor's office.
Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology had earlier rejected
students' calls to postpone exams scheduled for June 3-29.
"The classes will remain suspended until July 14," an official at the
university in the capital said on Monday.
Bangladesh failed to qualify for the World Cup finals, which will be hosted
by Germany from June 9 to July 9.
