Parents to sue university over course closure
Exeter University is facing legal action over its decision to close its chemistry department. An action group of parents of
university students whose chemistry courses will be cut, called ‘Parents Against Closures at Exeter,’ is looking to sue the
University for breach of contract. Students have been told to either transfer to another degree course at Exeter, or are being
offered up to £2,000 to relocate.
