The hottest Academic issue today is the
Universities’ war against the Minister of
Education’s law requiring The Higher
Education Council to include representatives
from Ariel University, releasing it from the
need for affiliation with an alternative council
specially established in order to legitimize it.
Although I loathe anything that could promote
civil war, where everyone loses, students
shouldn’t suffer from it, particularly not those
from one of the best Schools of Architecture
in the vicinity.
Relax.
