French bill opens universities to business funding

Wow, Sarko has managed to do it!!!, he has managed to open the clam shell of french universities from those poxy unions!!!! See what they say? "However, according to a group of 25 trade unions and associations, including the French association of researchers "Sauvons la Recherche", teachers' and students' unions, the reform would "lead to the unequal development of universities due to the race for funding and the disengagement of the State". In the end of July, the group asked the government to drop its plans on university reform."

I mean, which world do they live on? do they want all the universities to be universally mediocre? how bizarre. Despite all this wonderful egalitarian principles, France still ended up with a very tiny coterie of Enarque bureaucrats, businessmen and politicians running the country for most of the fifth republic. See here for a previous analysis of this french elite. Typical, mediocrity is for the masses, but the elite get away with privilege and gobbling up resources.
