Bias: The British pathologist at Oxford who rejected an Israeli grad student’s application simply because he was Israeli, has apologized, sort of:
"My act was out of conscience about the war and I was completely open about my reasons. It was totally out of order I agree but it was done honestly.
"I am deeply sorry for this and realise that I took the wrong action. In addition an official apology has been issued by Oxford University and the student’s case will be taken forward. I retract what I said, which was caused by too personal and emotional a response to the terrible situation in Israel. I hope you can forgive me."
