Complete Headline: University warns over 'inappropriate' lavatory habits - blaming foreign students for defecating in the showers and dustbins

• The memo was emailed to 400 students and 250 staff at Strathclyde University [in Scotland]
  
• It reminded them that 'all bodily fluids' needed to be 'disposed down the toilet'
  
• The memo singled out the 'different practices' of foreign students
  
• But a university spokeswoman later hurridly apologised for the email

Students at one of Scotland's top universities have been told off for pooing in showers and bins.

Bosses at Strathclyde University were forced to send a memo to the 400 students and 250 staff asking them to stop with their 'inappropriate' toilet habits.

The memo, posted on Thursday, was sent by the operations management team of the University's Technology and Innovation Centre.

It read: 'Given the incidence of people pooing in bins, showers and the likes, can I please remind all TIC occupants that the toilets have been provided for that specific purpose.

'All bodily fluids, solids and toilet paper must be disposed of down the toilet.

'While I appreciate that the TIC population is multi-cultural and different countries have different practices, here in the UK the accepted practice is to use only the WC.'

They added: 'The building houses some of the most intelligent brains int he world - yet they don't appear to know how to use the toilet.

If they really wanted to get these guys, they would DNA all immigrants and then DNA test the poop. Get those poop perps!

I wash with uncomfortably hot water, use paper towel to turn-off faucet, and another one to open the door.

New study says:

Not the heat of the water that matters but the use of soap and the LENGTH OF TIME washing your hands. Recommended length: 2 renditions of the song “happy birthday”.

Nowadays the DNA testing is so fast and cheap your suggestion is actually quite feasible. It would be an incredible deterrent. All they would have to do is post pictures of the results on campus bulletin boards and that would end the practice forever (you would think, anyway).

Visa gets revoked if you can’t poop in a toilet.

[I want the USA back]

Pooping, peeing and other actions is the least of your worries, Brits! Worry about them slicing your necks, idiots!

"...soap and length of time washing hands..."

Oh don't you worry, my good FRiend.
My dining room could be an impromptu surgical center.
Most folks who drop a peanut butter sandwich face down on my garage floor would still eat it.
I am pretty intense about such things. ;-)

Good idea. A new classification of Visa denial:

Cancer is a diverse disease it comes in many forms. Some forms are more deadly then other forms.

sure-nuff first world now

part of the entrance exam should be having them use the toilet

It would be tough to do here with our judges but if Scotland wanted to they could make it a criminal offense (disease spreading) and if they commit a crime their visa gets yanked. Note to Trump administration - maybe they can add this to extreme vetting.

There was one Valley employer that had a run of sprained & broken ankles by “The Best & Brightest.” Standing in a sit-down zone can be hazardous to one’s health.

I wonder how far away we are from remote point-and-click DNA testing.

Have you ever been in a public restroom near the Mexican border? Signs are all over the place about putting used toilet paper in the toilets not on the floor. Its been that way for years and years.

It takes 45 minutes to relay in that foreign gibberish to tell a bunch of Koreans to stop shitting on the deck?

Rules must be followed!

Years ago, before starting a teaching assignment overseas, I bought a book titled Going Abroad. The title was a pun. The book was a description of toilet practices in various foreign countries. Interesting, somewhat frightening, but very helpful.

I never did master the "hole in the floor" toilets in Turkish restrooms.
