MSU students cry harassment

MINDANAO State University (MSU) students, who staged a second protest rally against the planned tuition fee increase in front of the school administration building Monday, assailed the alleged harassment by a school official.

Students identified the school official as Ireneo Pelayo, director of the Office of Student Affairs (OSA).

Liezelna Ahalul, president of a student party STAND-MSU, said Pelayo earlier threatened the students not to join the rally because it has no permit.

Ahalul said Pelayo also approached different groups of students who were preparing to join the rally.

Some students who joined the rally were reportedly questioned about their personal background and were made to show their school's identification card.

"This is intolerable arrogance. Maybe they have forgotten the limits of their powers. Remember that this is a state university where a wider space of tolerance is supposed to be observed," Ahalul lamented.

"We condemn these despicable acts in the strongest sense," she added.

The students vowed to take more actions until the school's administrators heed their demand not to increase tuition fees.

The state-run university is planning to increase tuition fees from P25 per unit to P75. AST
