Jonathan Jansen steps down as UFS rector

Stunning opportunity for him - he's a good guy. Congratulations to him.

SA's loss is Stanford's gain.

Oops..

Will the dear professor be happy to study at an institute started by such a questionable character, or will it be fair to expect that he will have a local chapter of Stanford Must Fall up & running within a reasonable time frame?

Jansen was one of the few VCs to take a stand against these protesters...

He was not a person to be too diplomatic, when it was not needed.My daughter is at UFS. She told me that he once dealt with a worker, who had entered his office asking for a pay rise.
He simply said : "F**k off !" End of conversation.

Relax I'm not that ignorant, was merely having a bit of fun at his expense.

To confirm: are you suggesting "F off" in this situation was needed? If you are, I'm confident that nobody in corporate would like to be spoken in that manner during their salary negotiations.

You are mistaken.

I highly doubt he uses "F**k off !"
