There’s an old saying: “When you are in a hole, stop digging”.
This could easily be applied to the University of Queensland’s (UQ) bungled handling of undergraduate Drew Pavlou, which UQ is attempting to expel for shining a light on the University’s deep ties with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Drew Pavlou’s ‘David vs Goliath’ fight has garnered international attention on UQ’s deep CCP links. And the more UQ bullies Pavlou, the more these links are thrust into the spotlight. It’s a public relations disaster.
