Students against the Occupation gatecrashed an employee’s Christmas party on South Campus with singing, candles and one famous Swedish climate activist.
University of Copenhagen management no longer has any patience for pro-Palestinian students, and Christina Egelund understands why. The Minister for Higher Education and Science fully supports the rector's handling of the recent demonstrations.
Pro-Palestinian group Students Against The Occupation was removed by police Tuesday evening 3 December. The group has violated a number of UCPH code of conduct regulations, management says. The students disagree, and say that the handling of the issue is a violation of their freedom of speech.
The lead candidate for the Student Council looks forward to working on the Board and is pleased with a record turnout.
Students against the Occupation were removed from South Campus by police Tuesday evening. They failed what the Rector of the University of Copenhagen has called the 'sock test'.

The University of Copenhagen should not take part in activities that take place on occupied land, the rector emphasizes, because that is what Danish foreign policy is. But the university should never, on its own initiative, restrict its own freedom because then the institution loses credibility. The University Post has spoken to Henrik C. Wegener about an academic boycott.
