The CPU has launched a subscription request to the Academic Senates and Boards of Directors of state universities to decide the output of its universities by CRUI . In this period of cuts to research and education (scholarships last victim, just cut by 90%) who are making it increasingly difficult to study, teach and do research, coordination suggests that the universities do not pay money, ( approximately EUR 1.5 million) for a body of fact, it was shown totally unrepresentative of the illness and University of discomfort to the reform proposed by the government.
the substantial inertia of the Conference of Rectors (CRUI) in these two years of cuts and their inability to convey the uneasiness and dissent from the academic world in the face of so-called "reform of the university" incontrovertibly demonstrate how this association is not now able to perform the duties provided in a credible manner by its own statute (representing Italian universities and enhance their independence, offer technical advice to the Government and Parliament on the university system, to support initiatives aimed at improving the search system and high education, elevare la funzionalità, la qualità e il prestigio del sistema universitario italiano). Le recenti prese di distanza di alcuni rettori dalle posizioni ufficiali della CRUI, dopo mesi di sbandierato unanimismo, mostrano tutti i limiti di un organismo arcaico, incapace di sviluppare un dibattito e darsi meccanismi di funzionamento realmente democratici.
Di fronte all’evidenza che la CRUI oggi non serve davvero più a nulla e a nessuno, ci chiediamo e chiediamo all’intero corpo accademico che senso abbia tenere in vita strutture costosissime come la CRUI e la fondazione CRUI, cui le università italiane, colpite da tagli pesantissimi, versano ogni anno quote associative che non hanno conosciuto alcuna economic crisis. While cutting staff and services and investments in research are continuously resized, the funding of this "association of universities" is a luxury that our academic system really can not afford.
The legitimate right of presidents to themselves with their own forms of representation may well be played by a new association of rectors, and not at university, like any trade association that is funded by personal contributions of members.
For these reasons, we send an appeal to the Rector, the academic senates, boards of directors of all public universities for Italian deliberino leakage its universities by CRUI and invest the saved resources into more useful services for the university system and for the entire country.
