The University of Regina Students’ Union (URSU) is suing the University of Regina for allegedly withholding student fees and terminating its fee collection agreement without adequate notice, reports Regina Leader-Post. URSU has stated that student fees have been “wrongfully withheld” since the beginning of January and that the university terminated its fee collection agreement without 90-days notice. URSU is reportedly seeking a court order that would require URegina to pay the funds and continue providing student fees according to the standing agreement. A statement from URegina explained that the university implemented a payment protocol earlier in the year so that URSU could receive student fees to fund core services, but that “URSU has chosen not to engage the protocol and access these funds.”
