I'm asking because I'm wondering why they would have made this decision (specifically wanting to build it where the housing project was), like what the intent is, is it accidental (they wanted it to be there for other reasons, not because they wanted the housing project to be removed or something), is it on purpose? For what reasons?
Also because I'm wondering if there might be internal weirdness in Fudan, considering in 2019 there seems to have been a lot of internal difficulties when the had to change their pledge to include "loyalty to the party" and following xi-jinping thought, and you had (according to wikipedia anyway) student protests against these things. Even a state-funded university might have issues, considering a lot of academia tends to be very lib.
I don't know where I'm going with this, but It feels like a very interesting event.
I don't know the actual reason either but if i would have to guess the reason probably is that that area was the largest available at the moment and China is pushing forward with the project because they want as much of BRI ready (since this is also supposed to be a part of that project) in the least time possible as they can. At least the things that leaked so far seem to indicate that.
Don't get me wrong btw this is a huge mismanagement of assets by the government as well, but in this case at least not taking a look at what their project erases is kinda not a good strategy here and it makes it even worse that this is actively hurting the movement here.

Agreed, it's a shame and it also contributes to anti-china sentiment.
