Strangling And Orgasams

At 24 hours after the vote

With some unease read the protest of tomorrow by groups called Anomaly Sapienza, Network for Self-training , Coordination of collective against the operation of government and to ask the candidate's commitment to stop teaching.
We are hopelessly liberal but we do not like the idea that a democratic act as either the proscenium of the elections a political demonstration. We understand the opportunity situationist but we think the Democratic liturgy will be spared. The issue is not to determine the legitimacy of the vote (which by the way the students do not deny absolutely): when a "people" (citizens, workers, voters, take your pick) goes to vote freely, "politics" should be stop. The voter must approach the voting booth with the greatest serenity and joyful awareness of doing something important.
I think this is also the meaning of "electoral silence" silence some will chose to ignore, perhaps thinking it was a practice obsolete and anachronistic.

How Ezio's Hidden Blades Work

Exactly ... voters

At this height, the campaign has said all he had to say. Yet another rally, another emphatic "I promise that if I am elected ..." and the saturation level of the voters will peak. It 'clear that those who decided not to change his mind and those who chose to stand at the window will continue to do so. There seems
Orlandi, which summarizes the situation well and raises the forum (on the blog ) its intentions and, spurred by Daniel Pluchino of unimagazine.it about possible alliances, he replied: after the first vote, will determine the conditions because you recompose the picture ... ... [...] Let's see. It depends very much on voters .

The Rector

Sometimes a photograph is important what is excluded from view. And in the picture these days, crowded with characters, there is no prof. Renato Guarini.
Today we speak commonly of pride and collegiality in decision-making, many have re / found the strength to respond to the curious conventio media attack aimed at the largest university Italian.
The credit for this - for much - is Professor Guarini.
I remember one of the first public appearances, a demonstration in support of the feline community of Wisdom. I admit that was a little 'puzzled, then I understood. A rector must be near the same time, teachers and students Gattari and super Baron bearer of funding, and prestige of votes. Untamed
in pursuing a sense of community and identity of Wisdom is not backed off an inch even in the face of accusations that have rocked a Mahatma .
Then there is the invitation to the Pope, which we have already written . It was said that was a communication error, a political mistake, naivete. Maybe. But we can not fail to recall that among our graduates We already have a pope of the modern era (John Paul II) and that when in 2000 they celebrated the great and solemn event of Christianity in a public university no appeal, no voice - even whispered - stood up to affirm the secular nature of knowledge .
We are not even remotely able to judge the work of the professor, just think that history will undertake to prove that it was a great Renato Guarini Rector.

A tip for all candidates: remember that the victories are all but the defeats are uniquely yours. You know, but it is worth repeating.

The dawn of a new world

put aside - for a moment - the verve Asor controversy. From the perspective of academic politics, the reasoning of the professor is flawless (on the other hand, we would have surprised to the contrary). On the one hand, there are candidates who represent the continuity under the previous management (Avallone, Edward Arnold, and especially the friars) and then there are others: Campanella, Martinelli, Orlandi, Vestron and Zuliani. The cold logic says that whoever gets the most electoral votes wins. To beat the Friars should oppose a plank of his equally formidable: Science and Engineering. Translated into "numbers": the votes of the President of AST (Guido Martinelli) and those of the Dean of Engineering (Fabrizio Vestron). Around this axis can be constructed and consent of the other faculties of the other candidates excluded from the pact .
What does not work in this reasoning? The impression that this vote expresses a joint political richer and more than Academic intuit the shrewd and complaints. The assessment of the previous management
Guarini is not so clear. Positive and negative reviews are evenly distributed both among those who belonged to both of who he was - even brutally - excluded. Listen and read the candidates' answers on this subject (believe teachers are not use to practice courtesy institutional when it comes to judging their colleagues).
instances of the various candidates and the abstention of many active faculty show that electoral promises and exchanges are much more fluid and to be defined. Then maybe the polls
brutalize / simplify all the options - but for now this is so, and - For Wisdom - a good thing.
Update:
read the Manifesto that tests for the medical professions was cited an article by prof. Asor. Of course this article replication Friars, have nothing to do with the interview with Republic yesterday. I think.
