Dr. Ray Stantz: Dean Yeager! Are you moving us to a better office on campus?
Dean Yeager: No, you're being moved off campus. The Board of Regents has decided to terminate your grant. You are to vacate these premises immediately.
Ray: (stunned) What?
Dr. Peter Venkman: (deadpan) This is preposterous. I demand an explanation.
Yeager: Fine. This university will no longer continue any funding of any kind of your group's activities.
Peter: But the kids love us!
Yeager: Doctor... Venkman. We believe that the purpose of science is to serve mankind. You, however, seem to regard science as some kind of dodge... or hustle. Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist, Dr. Venkman.
Peter: I see.
Yeager: And you have no place in this department, or this university.

Mr. Dallstrom was big on punishing the victim.
