also called the AG to participate in Day of Action 14 and 20 November with the railway workers and public employees to bring our demands to the streets and reaffirm our determination to defend the public service.
The day looks set but in the afternoon, the presidency of the university, which trades on each board's procedures for implementing the LRU, we threat of police intervention to dislodge us from our own premises, claiming security reasons that were never met at the Faculty of Letters of Aix-en-Provence since its construction. It attempts to discredit the struggle of students.
Still, the students decide to follow the decisions of the GA and in the evening, occupying the university. It finally later in the evening that do u fifteen vans of riot police will be out of the 80 students strength of the faculty!
Everyone is indignant: indeed is the first time in the history of the university that the forces Agenda occur on this campus! Even during the strikes of 68 or 95 they had not intervened!
From that moment, the university president (who decided this action unilaterally) decide the administrative closure of the building Schuman University of Provence ...
Thus, following the decision of the AGM on November 7, student activists spend their first night in college: we talk (a lot), we debate (much), it coordinates (Much). It prepares the next day by consolidating dams, making banners. Amid chants and discussions are held with a service order to avoid unwanted intrusions ... Fortunately the lecture halls are heated and activists spend a quiet night!
