An article in the “Daily Express” says that scores of British students attending the University of Vienna’s courses in medicine and psychoanalysis held a protest meeting yesterday. They addressed a resolution to the Academical Senate stating that if the intolerable situation caused by the continued disorders, in the University continues, the foreign students would take steps to warn their countrymen of the dangers and discomforts that are attendant open university classes in Vienna and will urge them to go elsewhere. The University of Vienna cannot afford to ignore this threat for under the existing arrangements foreign students pay three times as much for tuition as native students, and they contribute largely to the upkeep of the University.
