Answer 1

The correct answer is B) He threatened to resign.

The University Rector reacted to the student’s demands in that he threatened to resign.

It got the moment when there was so many protests. The students were making a lot of noise and the pressure increased. At that moment, many incidents regarding racism had happened on campus among other difficult situations. The Rector of the University was accountable for the situation that the campus community was living. That is why he threatened to resign.

The other options of the question were a) He ignored them, c) he added his signature to theirs, and d) he fired the professors.  

Answer 2

He threatened to resign.   Finally after several weeks of intense student protests and threats, the rector decides to resign forced for having done very little on the subject of racism and other unpleasant incidents on campus. The chancellor who supervises the university will also resign. This achievement is a victory for student activists.
