University Bans Students From Kissing And Making Love On Campus

The University of Zimbabwe has banned its students from kissing and having any intimate affair on campus, but the Zimbabwe students' union on Thursday rebelled over these Dracula rule.

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.

The university also barred resident students from bringing members of the opposite sex to their hostels and "loitering in dark places outside the sports pavilion or lecture venues."

Student leader Gilbert Mutubuki said "We are against these rules which we view as archaic, repressive and evil," Mutubuki, president of the Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) .

"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."
