Maarten Boudry(@mboudry):This internal email from a tenured professor at Nathan Cofnas’ department shows not only that the “barrage” of complaints about the “negative effects on well-being” was perfectly coordinated, but that it was explicitly encouraged by rector Petra De Sutter herself. If this is true, she was actively egging on the hecklers in order to grant them a veto, which makes the whole affair even worse. /2
