The article highlights the deteriorating conditions of the University of Erlangen, with a specific focus on the alarming presence of hazardous substances such as PCB (polychlorinated biphenyls) in the university buildings. It addresses the unique challenges faced by pregnant students or those nursing, as they navigate their daily routines amidst these health warnings. Signs around the campus advise these women to familiarize themselves with safety information related to PCB when spending extended periods on campus.

The Friedrich-Alexander-University (FAU), being the largest university in Bavaria outside of Munich, serves a diverse student body, including many young women in the humanities. The institutional neglect reflected in the article raises significant questions about the university's responsibility towards the health and well-being of its students. The article implicitly critiques the university's reaction to known issues and the discomfort experienced by students who are in vulnerable positions due to pregnancy or breastfeeding.

This situation calls for urgent interventions to improve campus safety and facilities, especially considering the potential long-term effects of PCB exposure on both mothers and children. The article aims to raise awareness and promote discussion around the structural inadequacies within educational institutions regarding student health policies, particularly for those at risk like pregnant and nursing women. Such important social issues need to be addressed to ensure a safer learning environment for all students.
