Spanish rectors' conference Crue welcomes new University Student Statute entering into force
Crue, the conference of Spanish university rectors, has praised the new University Student Statute. In a statement on 22 October, it said the statute would enter into force that Friday.
Why it matters: Crue describes the new statute as an advance in recognising the rights of university students in Spain.
In a statement issued in Madrid on 22 October 2026, Crue, the Conference of Rectors of Spanish Universities, said the new University Student Statute would enter into force that Friday.
Crue said it viewed very positively the progress the statute represents in recognising students' rights.
The rectors' conference also expressed a very positive view of the participation in drawing up the statute.

Crue said the new University Student Statute would enter into force on the Friday after its 22 October statement, and the rectors' conference rated very positively both the advance it represents in recognising students' rights and the participation in its drafting.
