İzmir-based Ege University was revealed to be discriminating against those who were dismissed from their jobs as part of the Turkish government’s crackdown in the aftermath of the controversial coup attempt on July 15, 2016, Turkey Purge reported.
The university’s Graduate School of Social Sciences announced on its website that those removed from the job are not allowed to apply to the master’s programs.
However, a Turkish court on Monday cancelled an earlier decision barring law professor Cenk Yiğiter, an academic dismissed in 2017 for signing a peace petition, from returning to university to continue his studies as a student, Ahval news reported.
According to Ahval, Yiğiter was qualified to study at the Radio, Television and Cinema Department at Ankara University after he passed the university exam in 2017. But the university changed its bylaws in August 2017, the day exam results were announced, adding the condition of “not being dismissed from public service” for enrollment at the university.
