Student protests disrupted class at CPUT

It was 16 May 2011 around 18:15pm when the students protests stormed communication science classroom and disrupting the session. One of the students who was almost finish presenting her topic had to stop immediately to avoid insult, No way out: Trafficking of women in Nigeria. As they were coming and singing struggle songs and dancing everyone jump from the chairs and ran for his or her safety. About 30 students protests made a point that classes did not take place as they were going class to class ensuring everybody was out of the class. But thanks GOD non of the students were injuried. 

As everybody left the building myself and Luthando, we stayed behind one student from Pasma approached explained, why they were disrupting the class and he humble apologise to us. One of the things he mentioned was fee increased for next year, residences be properly maintained, libraries stay open until12am, and more printers and computers be made available to students.

I mean the PR and Media studies were to be called off because on going strike in the campus and for the safety of students and lectures. I felt that some of their complains were genuine especially the incerase of the school fee and computer, libraries and residents. But the disruption of the class was totally unacceptable. If  the strike continue to prolong in the process innocent students and lectures would deeply hurt by outcomes of the strike. I'm calling upon the top managment and SRC to iron out their diffirence before bath of  shedding of blood occured.
