The dean and other members of the university’s medical faculty were today considering what action to take on yesterday’s disturbance by medical students who are members of the now officially banned National Radical (Nara) party.
Protesting against a promise alleged to have been given to Rabbi Posner by the dean, to the effect that Jewish students would not be required to furnish bodies of Jewish dead for use in anatomy classes, the Nara students staged demonstrations in the lecture-rooms.
Admission to anatomy classes has been denied to Jewish students here in the past on the ground that they were not arranging to have the bodies of Jewish dead brought to the anatomical institute. In his statement to Rabbi Posner, the dean is said to have expressed the opinion that it was not the duty of the student to provide the corpses.
