What's so strange about an exchange program between two academic institutes? Alas, sometimes I forget the cluster is the business of promoting close-mindedness.
As for any SDII presence in Elusenia, it can be assured that the foremost function of the Elusenian Intelligence Agency (EIA) is counter-intelligence. Any FIO presence in our borders will not have a legal mandate until one has been granted either by our government or the Eustron District Court. In short, any Federal intelligence assets in Elusenia will be treated as malignant. Federation Law protects the rights of private corporate land.
All that being said, I'm sure the FIO have better things to do than worry about an island not much bigger than 200 hundred thousand square kilometres. There's at least two other temperate worlds in Vale they have to worry about. |

I cannot reconcile this mindset at all. It's as if just because there is a limited war going on, all empire stargates are locked to denizens of opposing empires. There are thousands of non-Gallente students at the University of Caille, for example, so I see no issue here. Besides, no declaration of war has been formally approved by the Senate towards the Amarr Empire or newly-vassalized Khanid Kingdom. Certainly, the Kingdom is not a participant in the CEMWPA, and I don't recall there ever being any direct confrontation between them and the Federation.
In any case, I think you very mildly insult the cultural integrity of both groups of students. |

It's a good thing their finances are covered.

Not sure what you mean by this. UoC sits at the top of the higher education ladder. |
