UL to review rag week after arrests

THE authorities at the University of Limerick are to review the future of the college’s annual rag week following disturbances which led to 20 arrests.

A large number of students were also given on-the-spot fines for drinking in public places.

UL president Professor Don Barry said yesterday: “Since becoming president, I have developed a huge regard for students of this university and it is regrettable that the inexcusable, anti-social behaviour of a minority has brought the good name of the UL student body into disrepute.
