A campaign against French participation in Heidelberg University’s 550th anniversary was launched today by Droit de Vivre, organ of the League to Combat Anti-Semitism.

The action followed refusal of several British universities to participate in the festivals on the grounds of Nazi persecutions and dismissal of “non-Aryan” professors from the German university.
