A large group of students gathered at a college campus in China’s Wuhan city on Sept. 19 to protest against the school administration’s handling of a power outage. Moreover, the campus has been locked down for weeks, and students are frustrated over strict COVID measures.

The blackout affected multiple dormitory buildings, including Building 15 for freshmen and Building 16 for sophomores, according to students of the College of International Business and Economics (CIBE) of Wuhan Textile University.
