Evidence

The Geneva branch thus became the official administrative headquarters. For academic purposes, however, it could only serve as a provisional head officenot only because of the threatening proximity of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, but also because of the Swiss attitude to emigrants. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 533 (#expands, via linked claim)
