Cecil Rhodes: Oxford lecturers boycott Oriel College over statue decision
Academics refuse to tutor students of Oriel College, which chose to keep the controversial statue. …
“If the college put up a notice explaining who Cecil Rhodes was that would be fine, if the college put a placard round his neck at lunchtime today saying ‘sorry’ that would also be fine. Anthony Gormley has suggested that the statue simply be turned the other way and face the wall and that would also be a very interesting idea,” he said.
