Standing up for critical thinking and the value of science and research: With its vote at yesterday’s meeting, the Senate of the University of Hohenheim in Stuttgart renounced current tendencies to deny and relativize scientifically based knowledge or to present it as equivalent to “alternative facts.” To show their support for this value, people all over the world will march for science on 22 April 2017. Marches and rallies are also scheduled to take place in many German cities, including Stuttgart and Tübingen.
