Holocaust denier dismissed. The disciplinary commission of Opole University...

20-04-2000

The disciplinary commission of Opole University has dismissed Dr. Dariusz Ratajczak from his position and forbidden him to return to teaching for three years. The commission found him guilty of "conduct unbecoming of an academic teacher and detrimental to the good name of the university and the academic community."

The reason for Ratajczak's dismissal was his publication and distribution of a book calling into question the killing of people in the Auschwitz Concentration Camp gas chambers (See the April Calendar in the January-June 1999 Bulletin and the December Calendar in the July-December 1999 Bulletin).
