Best 1970's Stereo Receivers

De Efren Sandoval Saucedo

Víctor my sympathy as a friend and companion. A call to spend all the rumors, the moods and actions disappoint. (For those who do not know, Professor of Victor Barrera was suspended at mid-semester for reasons 'budget', to give input to a chip professor of Ma Rosa Gutierrez, full professor. Victor path, even with his age, is another example of the prevalence of cronyism on the academy.).
The generation that now rules in the faculty has the same origin: the normal, that scourge that now holds the education of this country in shame and actively participating in the political immorality "democratic" country. That generation was not created in the environment of the academy, he never found the opportunity or the need to write a scientific paper, to do research, to upgrade, to do a PhD. Just managed to gain space by crony relations. This generation looks askance at anyone who threatens his poor intellectually know. Therefore, many or almost all scholars and prominent humanists or slightly prominent in the city, outside the school. Why people like Mario Cerutti, Veronica Sieglin, Maria de los Angeles Pozas, Esther Gutierrez and Victor Zúñiga (and now Victor Barrera) work in other areas and not within the FFyL. And there are other (Tere Celestino, Ma Elena Tovar, Lylian Palacios, and many others who are out for reasons not only economic but also political). Instead, it opens the space for those students who beg posts, and once they graduate, they become brand new teachers without being asked anything but be a faithful dog.

This generation of normality, was shocked to discover that they could move from textbooks to academic texts, literary, scientific. Was shocked to discover that I knew a little more than their students. He settled in the place of the teacher who thinks he knows a lot because he knows more than children who instructs. That generation has met with Brown syndrome that is bleached, the Indian who is mestizo or Creole, and who loses Like the ability to recognize others, who gave his life for safeguarding a false power. Hence the hatred and fear of anyone who is truly academic, scientific or humanistic.

Despite all its problems, Philosophy and Literature gave us the ability, I think, to feel part of a community while institutionally and not belong to her. We take this feeling to act. The reality of power is further evidence that the discourses of diversity and the realization of macro cultural events are empty ideas and actions. It occurs to me that in the context of the Forum, a crisis in the Faculty of Arts University of the city or the state headquarters of the Forum could call our attention. Those who govern today

School and even the authorities of the UANL, that this advantage is almost imperceptible, that almost nobody cares what happens there. I think we have to show us why it's important what happens there. I propose to move the pot, raise money and pay inserts in newspapers, where we make public our discomfort. Where we bring the faculty of the dark, where do you look at it. I'm not thinking in the North, although very bad at least serves to hit, but in other national media and maybe use as Carmen Aristegui communicators to make noise what would you think the media covering the Forum notes FFyL on a crisis?. The idea is to be embarrassed the authorities of the Faculty, they have to come forward, they have to invent excuses and thereby prove their mediocrity. Another idea would be to pay insertions in intellectual and academic journals.

This would warrant the involvement of several to build a text. A text with names. Come making agreements. Whoever wants to GET WITH reply to this message.
