Anus Painmenstruation

An article in Le Monde tranduisant discomfort

The great fatigue "masters conf '" stuck in their careers
Lecturers of the University not hide over their exasperation. "The promotion system, which passes right by obtaining the assistance of aggregation, ignores the reality that some of the investment begin to do their job," said Frédéric Allaire. Mr. Allaire is one of 32 lecturers from the Faculty of Law and Political Sciences of Nantes, signed in December 2007, an article published in Liberation. They denounced the management "disastrous" for academic careers. Under the headline "The crisis in sacks, their Trimmers angry," the signatories accuse a promotion system that they consider deeply unfair. "While teachers conference are very large majority and take an active part in university life, recognition, both material and symbolic is first for teachers, "they wrote. This difference is even less acceptable than the passage of the body of lecturers at the faculty is a road so narrow that it is for a large majority confiscated. "Mr. Allaire said:" The only way to pass teacher this competition is to succeed. No wonder some put all their energy to work for their promotion, instead invest in jobs teaching or coaching that yield nothing. "Much the discontent of young lecturers remains confined to the university. Disengagement creates discomfort, fear of the future and withdrawal. "There is a real concern for career and recognition among lecturers," says Jean-Pierre Finance, President of the Conference of University Presidents (CPU). Responsible for this university, this disenchantment is one explanation for the vote, sometimes a majority, lecturers, lists for opposing the law on the autonomy of universities or the incumbent President, in some institutions. "The lecturers have no monopoly frustration but it is especially among those who get involved, "said Fabrice Tricou, who teaches economics at the University of Paris X Nanterre." At least the teachers who do, are paid for it, "he says. Aware of the problem, some universities, like Paris VI, currently working on how to use their new autonomy in human resources, to better enhance careers. They also expect many of the commission's proposals on personal chaired by Rémi Schwartz whose findings are expected by the Minister of Higher Education in June 2008.
