Law professor Moris Lehner of the University of Munich says there are no loopholes in the laws that govern German universities. He is convinced that the grounds for expelling students are carefully circumscribed so that students are protected from being expelled arbitrarily. \u201cThe freedom to form and express one’s own opinion is one of the most valuable aspects of our democracy. Even laws regarding the university must give way to it.\u201d He believes that this is the reason there are only very limited grounds for expelling university students.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Guttmann, Jacky, \u201cNazis an Hochschulen\u201c, Sueddeutsche Zeitung, 1 September 2008.<\/p>\n *The Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked 67 among the world\u2019s universities.
