The government is shortening the term of office of the boards of higher education institutions from three years to 17 months, in order to bring in people with security policy expertise, the editorial platform Dagens Arena reports. The reason is to avoid Swedish patents disappearing abroad. SUHF’s chairman Hans Adolfsson speaks out very critically, and believes that it is a restriction of the universities’ self-determination. The University of Gothenburg’s vice-chancellor Eva Wiberg is also strongly critical in her blog: “It is a very strong signal and a serious step towards increased political governance that is sent with this message”.
