Edinburgh University students tell of discrimination on campus

Edinburgh University students have been talking about the kind of discrimination they have come across on campus.

It comes as the university has warned students from privileged backgrounds not to be "snobs" towards their peers from Scottish and working-class backgrounds.

The institution admitted class-related prejudice was a problem on campus.

It said individuals from less well-off backgrounds were being "inadvertently or deliberately shamed by more privileged students".

Olivia Gallosi and Roni Sharp told BBC Scotland say they had experienced judgemental attitudes towards being Scottish or having to work.

The guidance was issued after the newly-formed Scottish Social Mobility Society complained lecturers and students regularly mocked and mimicked individuals from north of the border.
