A-Infos (en) Greece, OSL, land & freedom: Position of Quieta Movere on the developments of the student movement (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Going through the fourth week of mass general meetings and sit-ins, 
yesterday, Thursday 1/2 we were back on the street, once again 
supporting the bloc of student unions with open-ended resolutions. The 
march was flanked, once again, by a crowd of students, students with 
squatters, teachers and workers. ---- And this Thursday it became clear, 
therefore, that the largest part of the social base, the oppressed part 
of the social fabric that is inside and outside the universities 
explicitly stated that even in the field of the street it is called to 
defend public and free education with bottom-up processes, open 
frameworks and mass coordination committees. In essence, this week the 
cycle of competitive processes as a whole, as reflected either in the 
field of the street or in that of the kinetic processes within the 
student clubs, highlighted the weighty importance of the horizontal 
processes that directly involve all students without the mediation, 
bureaucracy and "cinematic hooliganism" of other forces.

Also, this week the Rectors' Synod met which, in full cooperation with 
the Ministry of Education and its provisions, gave a single direction to 
the Senates of all university institutions in the territory for the 
realization of electronic examinations. In turn, the Senate of AUTH 
decided to go along with the decision of the Synod by announcing on 
Wednesday night that the examination will be given "normally" and 
electronically, in fact overruling the decisions of the AUTH student 
associations to occupy the departments and by extension to stop their 
operation.

For this reason, the largest part of Thursday's march ended up in the 
asylum, where, based on the decisions to occupy the Rector's Office of 
the student associations of Geology and Electrical and Mechanical 
Engineering, male and female students proceeded to occupy the 
administrative building with a basic request to lift the decision of 
AUTH Senate for electronic examinations. Perceiving the conduct of 
tele-exams as another repressive mechanism of the state with the sole 
aim of demobilizing the struggling students and de-escalating the 
struggle in general, we of course also supported this movement with our 
strength.

In the now occupied Rectorate, a giant banner was hung with the central 
slogan "Examinations can wait...our future can't" and was followed by a 
Coordinator of General Assemblies within it with the participation of 
dozens of student associations and hundreds of students.

However, a short time after the start of the coordination, during the 
process, i.e., where the clubs were presenting political considerations 
around the match being given and the participation of at least 300 
people, at the request of the temporary interim rector Apostolos 
Apostolidis, all kinds of police forces invaded (from security to MAT 
and EKAM) first inside the university asylum and second inside the 
rectory itself where they searched the building for people who might 
still have stayed inside. A rally against the evacuation operation was 
held right next door, where the student body lined up against the cops. 
The result was that the cops left the scene after half an hour, with the 
blocks of clubs following them until they were driven out and completely 
cordoned off the campus, defending the mass proceedings, decisions, 
demonstrations and student movement in whole of it. Then followed 
Coordinator of General Assemblies at NOPE.

Yesterday's example is the way we must move. To fully oppose the 
privatization of universities, to strengthen even more the procedures 
within the clubs with horizontality, to defend the asylum by all means 
by resisting any encroachment on it. Essentially, let's continue but 
also escalate the struggle, not to allow the repressive means unleashed 
by the state, such as the electronic examinations, the bravos of the 
reactionaries of the DAP-NDFK government faction and the prosecutorial 
interventions to mean nothing in front of the real stake, the which is 
none other than the defense of public and free education, health, 
transport, food, housing... in short the real issue is to live the lives 
we deserve.
