Students challenge expulsion from Dundalk Institute of Technology

Three students from Dundalk Institute of Technology are challenging their expulsion after being involved in four fights in January 2024. They argue that the punishment was too harsh and that the college did not consider lesser sanctions. The students, Margaret Eyong Taku, Wendy Briggs, and Christina Igweze, claim they were not given reasons for their expulsion. They also allege that the appeals committee did not properly evaluate their case. The High Court is reviewing the case, with arguments presented about the nature of the fights and the appropriateness of the expulsion. The judge has reserved judgment on the matter.
