Exploitative behavior by academic supervisors who deny proper credit, obstruct progress, and mentally harass researchers. It includes stealing unpublished work, manipulating power dynamics, and creating a toxic research environment. Though informal, the term highlights serious ethical violations in academic mentorship.

One who runs academic courses and takes pleasure in the failings of their student cohort. An academic terrorist assigns material they know the students cannot pass without significant stress. Attempts to reason with an academic terrorist results in them refusing to change material and even doubling down on their stance.
The professor is writing the exam with material we haven't learned yet. They're such an academic terrorist.
