The Colombo University Students’ Union and the Student Community unanimously expressed their displeasure over the appointment of Ven. Murutthettuwe Ananda Thera as the new Chancellor of Colombo University.
The University Students’ Union claims that the Chancellorship of a university should never be a political appointment or to fulfill a political agenda. Therefore, we, as the Students’ Union, and on behalf of the entire student community, express our strong opposition to this political appointment to the University of Colombo, which has a distinguished history and is still a prestigious university today, added the Students’ Union.
