Despite extensive security precautions taken by Universität Hamburg, today, the second lecture on macroeconomics delivered by Bernd Lucke was interrupted and had to be canceled. On this, the Executive University Board issued the following statement: After running for almost an hour, the lecture was disrupted as numerous protesters, some with their faces covered, stormed the lecture hall. In close consultation with the police and Lucke, the University had appointed a private security company to monitor access to the lecture hall, allowing only registered students to enter. Registered students were also offered the opportunity to livestream the lecture. In keeping with its safety policy, in response to the disruption, Universität?Hamburg canceled the lecture immediately, and Lucke was escorted safely from the premises. At no point was his personal safety or that of the students in danger. The Executive University Board roundly condemns such disruptions to lectures.
