大學校園應該接受殺人犯的入學申請嗎?

對于來自一名大屠殺兇手的入學申請，大學該如何處理呢?

This was the question facing the University of Oslo, when Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik applied from prison to take its political science degree.

這正是挪威奧斯陸大學在挪威大屠殺兇手安德斯·貝林·布雷維克在獄中提出攻讀政治學學位的申請時所面臨的難題。

In July 2011, Breivik had killed 77 people in a bomb and gun terror attack in Oslo and on the island of Utoya.

2011年7月，在奧斯陸和于特島發(fā)生的槍擊案和爆炸案中，布萊維克殺害了77人。

The university's decision on whether to teach him was made particularly difficult because some of the people killed by Breivik had been friends with students at the university.

由于當年被布雷維克殺害的人的朋友當中有人恰好就讀于奧斯陸大學，所以該校很難決定是否讓其就讀。

He had even named professors at the university as targets in his far-right "manifesto".

另外，在布萊維克的極右“宣言”中，奧斯陸大學的一些教授也是他點名攻擊的目標。

And in what the university's vice-rector called a "traumatic paradox", Breivik's chosen degree would involve studying the very political institutions his extremist ideology had attacked.

而布萊維克選擇就讀的專業(yè)，會涉及學習他所信奉的極端思想所要攻擊的政治制度，這在奧斯陸大學副校長看來，可謂“思之極恐的悖論”。

Nevertheless, three years ago the university agreed to let Breivik study under strict conditions and he has continued as an undergraduate student, taking a course which includes political theory, party politics, public administration and international relations.

盡管如此，奧斯陸大學還是在三年前同意讓布萊維克在極為嚴格的條件下就讀，他以本科生學習，選擇的課程包括政治理論、黨派政治學、公共行政學和國際關系學。

Course materials are given to him by a prison officer and he has no contact with students or academics or access to the internet.

課程資料通過監(jiān)獄管理人員交給他，他與學生、教師沒有任何接觸，也不能上網(wǎng)。

The university said teaching Breivik (who has since decided to change his name) was about honouring the right of prisoners to pursue higher education if they meet the admission requirements.

奧斯陸大學表示，讓改名換姓的布萊維克接受教育，是為了讓達到入學要求的犯人享有接受高等教育的權利。
