If the uni wants to control content then they should fund the paper themselves and not run elections for the editors. Otherwise they shouldn't censor them. After all, it's the students who will bear the ultimate responsibility if somebody was going to come along an sue them or whatever.

If you get too many men then they are going I start competing for women to replace with, this will inevitably...
