@vcaston @true_mxp yes, lack of rigorous checks, a culture of covering up scandals and bad behaviour.

@klaegermann @vcaston Exactly. However, I’ve only seen Raphael Rauch directly raise the issue of “publish or perish” https://www.kath.ch/newsd/carla-rossis-fake-institut-wirbt-mit-alibi-bibliothek-und-drogenanwalt/

@true_mxp @vcaston to be fair, #Hsg St. Gallen has had its fair share of institutional failures this year with two previous scandals over the recent time (corruption; throwing out a graduate student over his research on China)

@klaegermann @vcaston The comparison with the Catholic church is quite fitting ;-)
