Smelly Footed Student Wins Right To Study 4
Teunis Tenbrook, A philosophy student with feet so smelly that he was thrown out of Erasmus University in Rotterdam, has won the right to attend lectures after a 10-year legal battle. Tenbrook was thrown out after complaints from professors and students that it was impossible to study with the smell from his feet. A Dutch court has ruled however, that having smelly feet is no excuse to ban a student from a university. The judge said, "Our considered opinion is that the professors and other students will just have to hold their noses and bear it." It looks like Mr. Tenbrook and his ten rancid piggies will finally get an education. Let's hope he learns about soap.

He's been in court for 10 years about this? Please tell me he actually got his degree elsewhere in that time.
Otherwise...BIGGEST WASTE OF TIME EVER.

Instead of spending all of that money on legal battles, why doesn't he just buy new shoes..socks..bleach his bathroom floor and everything his bare feet contact..soak his feet in pure liquid antibiotic, and rub feet with some pretty girl that has non-vile foot odor? Its a bacterial thing..he picked up a type that produces way too many aromatic compounds.

.. this case stinks.
Sorry, someone had to say it. Instead of investigating why the guy can be detected upwind they go to court for 10 years. Duh.
PS, why did nobody offer him a bio weapons contract? On offer is a very portable solution which doesn't require any logistics. And you save on socks..
