A Revolutionary (for German Universities) Idea, but One Which Would Be Quite Superfluous at the Technical University of Munich \u2013 13<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Berlin data protection office is afraid there might be enormous disadvantages for professors who are evaluated on the website. It fears, for example, some professors might not receive research grants or other outside funding because of poor evaluations. The data protection office wants to have far-reaching changes in the student website carried out. Among other things, it wants a new type of user registration implemented so that not just anyone can access information about a given professor. Such a change would of course mean an end to any kind of public forum. Secondary school students and those considering a different field of study would have no access to relevant data.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Jan-Martin Wiarda, \u201eDie Angst der Profs vor dem Click\u201c, Die Zeit, 31.08.2006.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like someone who has been attacked and injured by a group of thugs.
