University Criticized for Kiss in Promotional Video

Canada's University of Moncton is facing criticism for a new promotional video that, in one scene, shows two students kissing in the library, CBC News reported. Clearly the video has attracted attention. But many students and faculty members don't like the approach. Marie-Noëlle Ryan, the president of the university's professors' and librarians' association, said the video was "pathetic." She explained: "It's the way it's like selling the university, like it's a beer product. And it's not that way that you will recruit serious students and people who really want to learn and have good diplomas."
