Private business school WHU in Vallendar near Koblenz terminated four students. Students reported drinking rituals in which new arrivals were said to have been pressured into drinking alcohol by so-called student sponsors.

WHU prides itself on its students; it is called an “elite university” and a “start-up hotbed” The text about the rituals and their consequences is my recommendation of the week. Your Katharina Hölter, editor SPIEGEL Start.
