Student groups critical of McGill & Concordia

Student groups are criticizing Montreal's two anglophone universities because of over spending on security.

In a report by the Montreal Gazette, the universities spent $500,000 extra on security during the student walkout last spring.

The FECQ and FEUQ called the extra spending wasteful and a poor management of public funds since both universities weren't as affected as francophone ones.

The universities meanwhile deemed it necessary to protect against vandals.
