The Week Trending - College Apologises To Students Over Lecturer Insults

A college has apologised to students after two lecturers were overheard insulting their virtual presentations. The lecturers at Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology forgot to switch their cameras off after the presentations, and were overheard discussing students' work.

GMIT's president said the incident was being taken very seriously and apologised "wholeheartedly" to the students concerned. Lorcan Nyhan and Laura Byrne joined us for The Week Trending to discuss this, Tom Cruise's rant at the film crew who broke COVID-19 guidelines and more.
