Fortunately the event was Sociological Theory (Wednesday 28 at 7pm) at the Sala Ramos Alva and not in a room either. With the management of the organizers, Professor Negreiros and approval of the Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences. hope that this event is not the exception , a precedent for others to give. Also we took the floor to Professor Negreiros about supporting all interested in organizing academic and cultural activities. Expect the same from the other teachers of the faculty. We look, like you, from all anomalous situation that would mean a regression in what we saw yesterday. In this case, and invite you to make BAD (boycott + activation + disobedience) if the situation reverses.
During 2009 we had many problems to use spaces Villarreal University, our university, because of unusual excuses for the administration of the Faculty of Social Sciences.
is why the last date of "La Movida in Debate was conducted in a classroom (B-31) the option referred to and not in the room Ramos Alva , this due to lack of coordination of foreign faculty, our case was not isolated but repeated for other academic events such as Sociological IV Discussion of UNFV; conferences Chair Alberto Flores Galindo, from other conferences that could not be in the proper room for such events but in classrooms . Needless to say, neither provided support in terms of equipment, or auspices.
follow the usual requirement for permission for these events: submit a document signed by a professor from the faculty as an endorsement , which is a way to put a gag since many teachers are not committed to sign, only a few well being need to be present at the event to sign the loan of equipment, a complicated situation since the few supporters with his signature can not be at that time for work or other reasons, the bottom line is that most are not full-time which are conspicuous by their absence.
We ask both mentoring Why? say not to steal the equipment. Distrust of the measure if the responsibility to organize the event, the students have if they will take losses. We believe that this move aims to regulate erroneously academic and cultural activities, lends repression therefore should be amended .
The straw that broke the camel this week is that on Sociological Theory Event organized by the Association of Sociologists done successfully in San Marcos and PUCP during the last two weeks have not space, nor permit to be made today (Wednesday 28). reasons? Even the wait. Clearly the boycott seeks School academic and cultural activities that are not to your liking , either because of subject matter or the source of the organizers.
The Faculty of Social Sciences at the Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal is "harakiri" ( commits suicide) against itself by denying its students and teachers the opportunity to express themselves through academic and cultural events. Freedom of expression is a fundamental right that we revive and it is an expression of democracy, as well as ensuring the diversity and plurality of voices that enrich the academic life.
denounce the negligent and capricious attitude of the authorities of the Faculty of Social Sciences UNFV the and call these change this situation. Also encourage students and teachers to demand the same. From here suggest latter BAD do this is: Boycott to activities organized by the faculty; Activation of academic spaces through permanent and continuing organization of events; the refusal Disobedience to give permission, choose to use classrooms or other space for events.
