UBC cancels second-term exchanges to Hong Kong

The University of British Columbia's vice-president for student affairs Ainsley Carry said UBC has cancelled its second term for exchange students in protest-racked Hong Kong. There were 31 UBC students on exchange or participating in co-op placements in Hong Kong this term, and 20 have now returned home. The remaining 11 students are safe and accounted for. The university said it will work with students affected by the cancellation of the second exchange term to provide a number of options that will include switching to another university or deferring or withdrawing from their exchange.
