The terrible thing is that this happened in a chemistry lab, where people should really know better. Liquid nitrogen is dangerous in a surprisingly large number of ways: Cold burns when touched, explosions when sealed in a container. And if you're in an enclosed space with it, you've got to be careful not to let it fill the room with nitrogen gas and asphyxiate you.

Universities can be problematic, when you do your PhD you really need your supervisor to give you a good recommendation.
