The cancellation of University of Otago's law camp is a "low-blow" for students and enough changes have been made it should be allowed to go ahead, second-year law student Mhairi Mackenzie-Everitt argues. Ms Mackenzie-Everitt (19) has started a petition calling on the university and Society of Otago University Law Students (Souls) to reinstate the camps after it was cancelled in the wake of allegations involving nudity and jelly wrestling. The legendary Souls law camp 2018 that many sights had been set on since a year ago has been cancelled - not even five days before it was due to start. In the last week there have been several allegations against Otago Law and the annual camp. Collectively, second years were quite shocked to hear the stories about what has gone on at law camp over the last few years.
