BEIRUT: Classes will resume normally at a Tripoli Lebanese University branch rocked by protests in the past weeks over the appointment of a Christian director, the education minister said.

“As of Thursday, normal classes will resume in the Faculty of Economics and Business,” Education Minister Elias Bou Saab told a news conference at the Education Ministry Monday.

All branches of Lebanese University will have one month to re-examine the appointments of faculty directors in a manner which respected the National Pact of confessional power-sharing, Bou Saab added.
