The University of Kassel's Senate voted to change the civil clause, dropping the explicit reference to civilian purposes for research and teaching. Critics argue this enables cooperation with the arms industry. Students and employees protested, with 82.3% of students voting to retain the existing clause in a referendum. The university maintains the change 'precises the peace mandate' and supports researchers through an orderly procedure.
