THE University of the South Pacific (USP) pro-chancellor Winston Thompson says that the USP Students’ Association has two members on the USP Council and they should not broadcast matters dealt with by the council to the world.
He made this comment while responding to a letter written by the USPSA, calling for his resignation.
In the letter, the USPSA called on other council members to convene a special meeting and look at recommendations that Mr Thompson be removed as pro-chancellor.
The letter said students had lost confidence in Mr Thompson.
“We write to strongly urge the council to listen to the pleas of the students,” the letter said.
“We have lost confidence in the pro-chancellor and view the position as being highly politically motivated.”
Mr Thompson said USPSA members, who were part of the council, must comply with their responsibility.
“They should comply with their responsibility to not broadcast to the world the matters dealt with by the council.
“Whoever is advising them is doing the USPSA and the USP Council a grave disservice.”
