Eight persons R@, R#, R, R&, R%, R*, R©, and RΩ are seated around a hollow circular table. Four of them (R&, R, R#, and RΩ) sit on the inner side facing outward, and the other four (R@, R%, R*, and R©) sit on the outer side facing outward. Each inner side person sits directly behind an outer side person. All have graduated from different universities: HTS, UGI, LPU, HNB, KPJ, UPI, NIT, and FPT. The following conditions hold:

• The person graduated from KPJ sits just behind the one who is second to the left of the person graduated from UPI.
• RΩ sits just behind R*.
• R%, graduated from UGI, sits opposite the person immediately to the left of R©.
• R& is not graduated from FPT.
• The person graduated from HTS sits immediately to the left of the one graduated from LPU.
• The person graduated from KPJ sits just behind R©.
• RΩ sits immediately to the right of R&.
• The persons graduated from FPT and HNB sit opposite each other on the same side of the table.
• R& sits just behind the person graduated from UGI.
• R$ is not graduated from FPT.
