Polytechnic University cuts ties with student union
The student union of Polytechnic University (#PolyU) said on April 15, 2022 that the university had cut ties with it by demanding that it stop using the university's name or claiming affiliation with the institution.
The union's Ad-hoc Executive Committee said the university had also demanded that all of its affiliated organisations must move out of the university campus by July 15, 2022.
The student union said the move came after it had refused to sign an agreement with the university requiring it not to carry out any acts that would damage the institution's reputation.
The union said it decided not to accept the agreement after the majority of its members had voted against signing it in January.
It expressed deep regret over the university’s move, saying the union had been serving PolyU students for half a century and been a bridge between the study body and the university.
It said the university’s decision means it no longer recognises the union's official status and that it amounted to an erosion of students' rights.
