2015 academic calendar is gone but Students grievances remain

The 2015 academic calendar has came to an end in many institutions of South Africa prematurely with no concrete answer to protesting students. This is not the solution but stubbornness and arrogance of hesitating to give students answers to their problems. Though institutions have been shut down the struggle continue and students grievances need to be met by all Universities in order to commence the 2016 academic calendar. My interest is that; what will happen to the new undergraduate students, how the academic calendar will commence because the students are not ready to  back down as much as the management in Universities are not willing to give answer to students grievances. It said that "when two elephants fight, it is a grass that suffer" so the nation will suffer if our government does not intervene; Education will be for those who afford in this country. It is said that "Everyone has the right to have equal access to Education" to me it does not matter whether basic education or not but our government and institutions are denying dedicated students this right. Dr Blade Nzimande was promised about Free Education but it was ironically when he was the one forcing Fee increment.
