Boğaziçi University's resistance to Erdoğan's rector enters fourth week

The resistance of Boğaziçi University's community against President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's appointment of a politician as rector to their school entered its fourth week. A member of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), Melih Bulu's appointment has been widely protested with humor by students, who made artwork alluding to his love of the band Metallica.

Boğaziçi University students set up a small exhibition on campus to protest the newly appointed Bulu, where they wrote his name and the word "appointed" on famous brand logos.
