Με ψήφους 8 έναντι 4, η σύγκλητος του Πολυτεχνείου Κρήτης έδωσε παράταση στη σύμβαση με την Belvedere για την ενοικίαση των κτηρίων στο λόφο Καστέλι μέχρι τις 3 Αυγούστου του 2023.
Η συνεδρίαση του οργάνου πραγματοποιήθηκε σήμερα το πρωί με 8 μέλη της Συκλήτου να ψηφίζουν υπερ του να δοθεί η παράταση και 4 να ζητούν να μην δοθεί.
Είναι χαρακτηριστικό πως από μεριάς των 4 συγκλητικών υπήρξε τεκμηριωμένη παρουσίαση των λόγων που δεν πρέπει να δοθεί παράταση (ασφάλιση κτηρίου, οικονομική ζημιά για το ίδρυμα από τις συνεχιζόμενες παρατάσεις κ.α.).
Η πλειοψηφία από τη μεριά της επέμεινε στο ότι θα πρέπει να δοθεί η παράταση που ζητάει η Belvedere επικαλούμενη οικονομικούς λόγους
As a foreigner living here in Crete, I really don’t understand why you are using this top notch location like this. One night I visited here at the hill first time. I remember thinking maybe these are some kind of student houses, but the atmosphere like I was in a middle of some left win revolution. Very dirty everywhere, buildings in bad shape, graffitis all over and most of the young people behaving badly.
This area deserves better.
Agreed – maybe because Greece, historically, never actually matured away from the notion that “left-wing/marxist views are good for people”.
For reasons that include the fact that Greece never actually has Socialist/Communist regime (unlike our neighbouring Countries), there is a minority of Greeks that still believe in “revolutions” / “central planning” / “no personal accountability but rather the full accountability of the State”, etc.
This way, common Law criminals are constantly underrated, by being baptised as “μπαχαλάκηδες” rather than “καταπατητές” and any effort to progress, to build, to create is hindered by “αντιδράσεις” as if progress comes from denial or constant objections and friction.
How can you reverse decades of misinformation and propaganda that has been instilled across our youth? How do you teach them to deal in facts rather than emotions? How do you make them believe in themselves rather than in some abstract “State” that has consistently and across the World, failed every time it tried to intervene to human progress?
Unlikely, in my view, unless we fundamentally restructure our educational system (which also ranks amongst the worse in the developed world).
Faithfully,
Markos Daskalakis
