Uni hits sitters-in with injunction
frustrated bosses hit students occupying Birmingham University with an injunction
Students occupying a Birmingham University conference centre were hit with an injunction yesterday by frustrated bosses.
The sit-in by a group of around 30 students can be broken up if a judge upholds the injunction at a court hearing on Monday.
It is the second time the university has resorted to legal action to end campus protest against the privatisation of education.
