One does wonder what Foreman was thinking when he brought House back. Cuddy wasn't the only one affected by what House did, and one can reasonably expect others, not just Wilson, to feel slapped in the face when someone whose deeds nearly killed their former boss and who is now proven to be uncontrollably violent is brought back to the workplace that aforementioned former boss fled in the aftermath of his violence.

Foreman's attitude shows the same callousness as Sykes's. Both are following the rules, doing what they are allowed to do according to the law, but neither considers the implications for others. Yes, what Foreman is doing is caring towards House, but Foreman, as dean, also has other employees whose well-being is his problem, not to mention that if he takes on House, then, like Cuddy, he has some responsibility for keeping him functioning (or, in other words, in line).
