A university professor has said the entrance to her home was vandalized after she appeared on a television news program and expressed her views on antisemitism.<\/p>\n
Vana Nikolaidou-Kyrianidou, emerita professor of political philosophy at National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, told Kathimerini that slogans were painted at the entrance to her residence and that an accompanying text subjected her to repeated insults.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey vandalized the entrance to my house with slogans and posted a text in which they curse me in every possible way,\u201d she said, adding that such incidents reflected what people face when they publicly oppose the ideas of extremist groups.<\/p>\n
The self-described anarchist group Rouvikonas claimed responsibility for the attack. The group accused Nikolaidou-Kyrianidou of nepotism, favoritism, bullying employees and targeting students.<\/p>\n
The professor rejected the allegations as baseless.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is nothing specific in the accusations they mention. These people are not my students, and I do not think they have ever set foot in my class,\u201d she said, also denying that she had ever hired a relative.<\/p>\n
In a subsequent statement, Rouvikonas also accused the academic of taking what it described as a supportive stance toward Israel.<\/p>\n
In another incident targeting university academics, a senior administrator at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki was harrassed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
