    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The president of Higher Education Board (YOK),
    Yusuf Ziya Ozcan, requested in the mandate sent to the offices of
    university rectors that Jewish and Armenian students in Turkey be
    allowed to take vacation during their religious holidays.

    The mandate also extends to Jewish and Armenian academic staff being
    able to benefit from the same right.

    Therefore, the religious festivals of Jewish and Armenian students
    were recognized at an institutional level for the first time. The YOK
    also sent the mandate to the chief rabbi's office and the Armenian
    Patriarchal Presidency to inform of the decision, Hurriyet daily
    reports.
