  That's a great story. But who is this university security chief? I for some reason picture Bruce Willis, who just retired from being some CIA/Navy Seals operative and just took up this job wanting to quietly live out the rest of his years at the university.

    Right, until something from his past came back to haunt him.

  Every part of this is insane. The student Jumaah (an adult) returned willingly to Iraq to protect his wife and texts the professor to essentially apologise for the high likely-hood he wouldn't be able to turn in his homework (cos, you know.. beheadings). The professor chats to their Uni Security Chief who leaps to attention and hires his "go-to" mercenary force to rescue the student and his family?! They then happily give him a seemingly smallish bill for the whole job and no mention of visa problems. Wtf Sweden, is this normal?

    I want a PhD advisor like this! If they could defend me from ISIS, defending my thesis would be a cinch.
