At Ghent University (@UGent), everyone is allowed to think and speak freely. That is what the signatories of this statement have done. They have every right to do so. (1/4)

The signatories' statement does not nurture hatred. Moreover, with their statement, the signatories do not commit anything or anyone except themselves. (2/4)
Therefore, the statement cannot be understood as a statement on behalf of Ghent University as a whole, nor as a statement coming from a university that nurtures hatred. Our university does not nurture hatred and will never do so. (3/4)
Ghent University is a pluralistic university where free thought, speech and the right to express dissent are key elements of who we are and what we stand for. (4/4)
