Dirty protest .. academic brainboxes ordered not to poo in bins and showers by university bosses - Daily Record
The memo, posted on Thursday, was sent by the operations management team of the University's Technology and Innovation Centre.
It read: 'Given the incidence of people pooing in bins, showers and the likes, can I please remind all TIC occupants that the toilets have been provided for that specific purpose.
'All bodily fluids, solids and toilet paper must be disposed of down the toilet.
'While I appreciate that the TIC population is multi-cultural and different countries have different practices, here in the UK the accepted practice is to use only the WC.
