Zimbabwe Students Fight Dirty Over Ban Of Kissing In School Environment

University of Zimbabwe students’ union today protested against the school's decision to ban kissing on campus and any other form of sexual activities. The  protesting students said the rules were childish and are unaccepted.

In a circular displayed at halls of residence, authorities at the University of Zimbabwe said students “caught in any intimate position such as kissing or having s*x in public places” would be punished.

Also, the university barred students from bringing members of the opposite sex to their hostels and that“loitering in dark places outside the sports pavilion or lecture venues.” is unacceptable




Student leader Gilbert Mutubuki said students would resist the rules which was introduced two weeks ago. Mutubuki, president of the Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASSU) told AFP.
 “We are against these rules which we view as archaic, repressive and evil,” 
“We are urging students to resist the rules. These rules reduce the university to a primary school. The authorities need to be reminded that this is an institute for adults who are mature.”

“We believe these are security measures meant to limit students from associating,” he said.
What do you think of this rule? to hold or not to hold?
