CityU vows ‘zero tolerance’ as orientation ‘disco night’ video triggers probe

City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has launched an investigation into a video that surfaced showing a half-naked man carrying a woman during a student-led orientation event. The university emphasized "zero tolerance" for improper conduct after the clip appeared online. The incident took place on August 27, the first day of the university's three-day orientation programme.

The management sciences society, which organized the event, acknowledged inappropriate behaviour and apologized, stating they failed to prevent the acts in a timely manner. The society's executive committee was dissolved at a special meeting by the Students' Union Council. The university expressed concern over the "serious mismanagement and inappropriate behaviour" and established a student discipline panel.

The university maintains a "zero-tolerance" policy towards improper conduct and would take disciplinary action accordingly.
