Excerpt:
Students in the Jutland town of Herning preparing to take their final exams earlier this week were left trying to make sense of an unexpected message on their school's intranet on Sunday.
The message, posted by a maths teacher at the Herning upper secondary and adult education school, told students that if they were a woman taking an oral exam, they shouldn't expect their examiner to shake hands.
"Our external examiner has stated that he does not want to shake hands with women, so it is best not to try to shake his hand. You have been warned, so there should be no confusion. Good luck with the exam."
