Two teachers invite staff and students to gather on the campus square on Tuesday to demand the reopening of the premises. “We have the impression of being faced with blackmail, which is beyond us, from a minority of feminist and anti-fascist students,” denounces Mathilde Bertrand.
The blockers have been demonstrating, since last Tuesday, in reaction to the management of cases of sexist and sexual violence by the University of Bordeaux-Montaigne. The director of this department of studies who acts on his behalf, and his colleague Stéphanie Ravez warn of a "a fed up" and "disgusted" atmosphere on campus.
