港大校委會解僱戴耀廷 中聯辦:懲惡揚善、順應民心的正義之舉
Benny Tai, an associate professor in the University of Hong Kong’s Faculty of Law, was sentenced to imprisonment last year in the “Occupy Central case”. HKU launched disciplinary proceedings to review whether he should retain his post, and its Council met today (28th). Sources said the Council voted 18 to 2 to dismiss Tai, overturning an earlier recommendation by the Senate to retain his position. The Liaison Office said this evening that the Council’s decision was “a just act that punishes evil and upholds good, and conforms to the wishes of the people”. Its spokesperson said, “Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. Benny Tai’s dismissal was entirely brought upon himself.”
香港大學法律系副教授戴耀廷去年因為「佔中案」被判監,港大展開紀律程序檢討戴耀廷去留,港大校委會今日(28 日)召開會議。消息人士指,校委會以 18 票比 2 票,通過開除戴耀廷的決定,意味著校委會推翻教務委員會早前建議保留教席的結論。中聯辦今日晚上表示,港大校委會的決定是「懲惡揚善、順應民心的正義之舉。」發言人又形容「正義或許會遲到,但絕不會缺席,戴耀廷被解僱完全是咎由自取。」

港大凌晨清除連儂牆「光時」等文宣 校方稱為保校園整潔 學生會:明顯因國安法
After the Hong Kong National Security Law took effect, many “yellow shops” began removing political materials from their premises, and tertiary institutions also started dismantling Lennon Walls. The pillars along University Street (U-Street), which connects the University of Hong Kong’s Centennial Campus and Main Campus, had previously been covered with political materials and notes written by students. The HKU Students’ Union said on its Telegram channel that, in the early hours of yesterday (the 8th), the university sent staff to remove materials bearing the words “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times” and “Hong Kong independence” from the connecting pillars. The university also told the Students’ Union that the pillars beside the Lennon Wall were not within the union’s management area, and that it therefore had the right to clear them.
港區國安法生效後,大量黃店紛紛收起店內文宣,連大專院校亦開始清拆連儂牆。香港大學連接百周年校園和本部校園大學街(U-Street)之間的柱上原貼滿文宣及同學寫的便條,但港大學生會在 Telegram 頻道指出,昨日(8日)凌晨校方派人清拆連接柱上印有「光復香港,時代革命」及「香港獨立」字句的文宣,校方更向學生會表示,連儂牆旁的柱不屬於學生會管理範圍,因此有權作出清理。
