I would like to thank all those who spoke at this conference which I think is a momemnto important to emphasize our presence in the area and our attention to issues related to young people, in particular university, but not only, in fact when it comes to the University of crisis we must not forget that we talk about the failure of a 'whole class, and especially senior managers talk about the crisis that affects all those families who derive their income from the University, which I often instead seems to be forgotten by those political parties who see the university's only source of income.
If we analyze the problem of debt the University is clear that those responsible are to be found in a lobby of people who have distant origins of time, comparable to a cancer that affects the University for years and that, as the final act, led to state of collapse today. Taking a quick history on the situation debt of the University, we realize that the origins are again to be found in anything but prudent management of a left that speaks System Siena University in June 2006 the Board approved a final 2005 far from rosy a sheet with a financial deficit of € 33.8 million and debts of more than 150 million contracts with MPS and the Deposits and loans for investment in structures, the first initiative to counter the heavy financial situation was taken under the Prodi government, June 19, 2006, one of the last major decisions of the then Rector Piero Tosi: given the situation thought it well to expand the plant's organic technical and administrative staff of 262 units, with these and other decisions, the descent became "free fall".
today with what we are? We have a university that is forced to sell his possessions to pull ahead, we have a university that provides its employees with salaries only for a few months, we have a university that is not able to provide students with certainty on the path studies, yet the University of Siena from 2005 to 2009 has received 45 million € more than the other Italian universities. Minister Tremonti visiting Siena, nicknamed "the University of Bengodi" prophetic words!
There 's been in crisis because of the usual mismanagement of public affairs that distinguishes the left, a typical example of a system that slowly gets out of hand and leads to collapse, in short, that system of patronage typical government red of our country!
If we pull the money we realize that nothing has been done in recent times in the good name of the University, which administers the left Municipality, Province and Region, let us not forget, it merely sought to shift the blame to the Government, the only administration center-right would ensure that a university of prestige and certainly functional.
In November 2009 he was presented the bill on university reform, a law not yet in place but clear and radical, which is opposite to the unacceptable shortcomings of the university system:
1.Stop unnecessary proliferation of courses (deleted in the past two years have 469 degree useless and expensive).
2.Chiusura of campuses unnecessary.
3.Concorsi assumptions and "transparent."
4.Fondi more to those who deserve them and less to those who wasted (in 2009 have been awarded a fund worth 525 million and the university were blocked recruitment in universities with the accounts out of place).
Our university would have to change things, studying Law, I found myself in front of course anything but helpful, I am referring for example to the right course of regional, rather than the right of local, let us remember that we are already examining right constitutional, rather than bankruptcy law that is merely part of the course of commercial law, also feature exam for the undergraduate law degree, rather than law and Islam, another course that is nothing but a photocopy of part of the program right Church. At first glance, a novice might ask, what are all these courses, what is in the same course needless to multiply the teaching materials that could deepen the student more interested in private, perhaps even with the support of the professor as a research staff? Still has a purpose, to ensure that desks and chairs to friends and family, yes it is now the University a poltronificio. So one wonders, why the University of Siena goes to the streets to demonstrate? Because the left-wing students demonstrated against the bill Gelmini?
We want a university where merit is rewarded, we do not want to read, as was the case Nov. 14, 2008 in The Economist, one of the most influential magazines in the world, the Italian university system is described as "a corrupt system , inefficient and poorly managed, however, that resists change, requires a change urgent. Five universities in bankruptcy. The whole system collapses. ". We would rather go back in the world rankings at the top, as opposed to what they tell us our political opponents, we want young people prepared and able to deal with the world!
In Siena, in particular, we should invest in the revitalization of the University, the scenario has changed today because we have a 'University, which is no longer what it was, until recently, a university reference to the southern middle class that inscribes its children in that small island was happy that Siena small quiet town in central Italy with a renowned university. Today members decreased visibly, the managerial choices are nothing short of appalling. We need a plan to relaunch in the round that interissi the training plan, but also the lives and social relations with the Siena students who invest in their future. The revival of one of the oldest Italian universities, a relatively small institution that has substantial external resources, must affect their teaching, with a return to study courses focused and quality. In its annual ranking published by Il Sole 24 Ore, Siena occupies the 38th position among the state universities, we must return to the top, go back to being a university on a human scale that gives the possibility of a culture and an all-round degree of prestige. We must therefore repudiate the trend that will take straight to the creation of a diplomificio, where the quality of service and education takes a back seat and where the only result is to graduate to more people but to encourage the registration, even students with low motivation and without the slightest interest in the future for new graduates and the skills needed requirements to enter the world of work.
I hope, therefore, that the system changes, you can go back to talking to Siena in the collective imagination as a small-town university, quiet town in central Italy where the bourgeoisie of the South to enroll their children because it is safe to find a city and a 'University on a human scale and at least qualitatively to the top of national rankings.
