Rome - 100.000 people for the demonstration against the new "Moratti Law" of school and university

Milano - Wednesday October 26th, 2005
We invite all to organize trains or buses and to leave for Rome, because distance can’t stop our dreams! Someone thinks that there is a little hope and that we must face the lost and also that occupation have a little and insignificant importance. We reply that it’s early to come back because our time starts now!

The Students of occupied universities, secodary schools and researchers called for a demonstration in Rome against the new "Moratti Law" of school and university in the day of the approval of the last one.
A moltitude besiege the Parliament asking for the immediate stopping of the parliamentary works, although the blocks and the charges.
When the siege finished and hundred of students were coming back to the univerity, the police started an heavy and unexpected charge in Via del Corso, with a men hunted in the centre of the city.
At the end six demonstrants and two journalists will be injured.

After the hand stroke of the past 27th september that was used from the minister to ask the Senate’s trust regarding the universitary reform, that was widely contested by students, rectors, teachers, and after a lot of time of occupation in a lot of universities, today, after the Camera’s vote, hundred of students have demonstrated to denounce the gravity of this reform.
This reform represents the last act, after the 3 plus 2 signed by Berlinguer-Zecchino, of the depauperation from the material point of view, the resarch’s cuts, and the ditching of the researcher figure.. And of subjects, the didactic question, the rigid cage of frequencies, moduls and credits till the exams made by small cross, of the entire university system.
A mobilitation, the one of today, that grew with students and precarious resaerchers consciousness and with the necessity of change and with the critics of the formation process that can’t be and doesnt’t want to be bound to corporativistic and market demand.
