Despite a ruling by the Judiciary, which has suspended the application of the so-called university counter-reformationa minority group of public university rectors this morning elected two of their representatives for the Sunedu Board of Directors. They are Manuel Castillo and Manuel Hernández, professors at the National University of Piura and the San Luis Gonzaga University of Ica, respectively.
UPDATE:
At night, the UNMSM reported that Manuel Hernández García, a professor at the San Luis Gonzaga University of Ica, was its second representative for Sunedu. The National University of Trujillo had reported in the followingnoon that he was Enrique Hernández García, from the San Juan Bautista Private University.
The activity, in the Casona de San Marcos, was convened by the rector Jeri Ramón, who had already warned that she was going to “comply to the letter” with the suspended law that was enacted by Congress last July. It corresponded to her for being the authority of the oldest public university in the country.
At least 14 rectors of the 31 enabled participated in the call. Thus, professors Manuel Enemecio Castillo Venegas, from the National University of Piura, and Enrique Manuel Hernández García, from the San Juan Bautista Private University, from the Ica subsidiary, were appointed as representatives of the public universities before Sunedu.
It should be specified that through two official letters, to which La República had access, the Ministry of Education (Minedu) and the National Superintendence of Higher University Education (Sunedu) warned him to the rector of the San Marcos University and its minority group that the law that provided for this change is suspended by a sentence of the Judicial Power, for which there might be consequences of not abiding by it.
