Management at the Faculty of Science will now keep a 100-year-old mural by Danish cartoonist and humorist Storm P. covered up after more than 100 critical emails. According to students, the motif is racist and should not be in a Friday bar. After initially rejecting the complaints, the faculty director now supports covering the mural.
