Students have welcomed talks to end an Oxford University ‘bop’ set up to promote gay rights.
The dean of Wadham College wants to ban the annual Queer Bop, saying past incidents posed a risk to the college’s reputation and student welfare.
The decision was welcomed by the university’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Society.
Its president, Amy Bellamy, said: “In my opinion, we are better off without the bop. It has just turned into a really big drinking party with hardly any queer people there.”
