The Jönköping University Foundation was once again refused by the University Chancellor's Office (UKÄ). Perhaps it is now time for Jönköping to put down the sword in the battle to start a dental education. "Carthage has fallen", and it's time for the "existing four" to show their muscles!

If the "Jönköping concept" does not hold, then where do today's universities stand when it comes to developing tomorrow's dentists? You can neither hear nor see much from there! Perhaps the academic world does not want program explanations about educations and educational goals to become public?
