The City University of Hong Kong has imposed disciplinary penalties on students and organisers involved in an orientation camp incident, following an investigation. A topless male video, purportedly showing a man carrying a partially clothed female, sparked the controversy. The Student Discipline Panel was established to examine the matter.
At the university, the Student Union affiliate society acknowledged serious mismanagement, dissolved its executive committee, and issued an apology. The concerned students admitted their misconduct and expressed regret for their actions. The university emphasized their zero-tolerance stance towards misconduct and hopes that the incident will teach the students involved the importance of adhering to university rules and the consequences of their actions.
To support the students, the university's Student Development Services will provide workshops on student activity management for similar event organizers. Additionally, a dedicated hotline has been set up to offer mental health support and assistance for those affected by the incident.
