Bennett slams ‘university cartel’ for blocking Ariel University medical school

Education Minister Naftali Bennett vows to continue fighting to establish a medical school at Ariel University in the northern West Bank.

“It’s unbelievable how the university cartel sticks a wrench in the works to prevent the establishment of a medical faculty in Ariel,” Bennett says in a statement after the Council for Higher Education’s Planning and Budgets Committee votes against the move.

“Israel is desperate for doctors, and all they can do is try to stop it! We won’t give up until we establish the faculty.”
