translated from Spanish: Called to boycott PSU: Director of Demre says “means risking a right to education” and Cones joins the demonstration

This coming Monday and Tuesday, it will be developed after two postponements, the University Selection Test (PSU). However, the new date has not been without problems, as there is a call from the Secondary Student Coordinating Assembly (Aces) to defuse the process has the test taker concerned.
Among them, the Demre. In this regard, its director, Leonor Varas, spoke of this call to boycott the PSU. “I really hope that there is no such boycott, I understand that they want to manifest themselves, I find not only legitimate but even interesting but boycotting the PSU means risking a right to education for many people,” he said in an interview with EmolTV.
On these people who will be affected if they defuse the evidence, he said that “they cannot violate the right of others.”
Regarding the guards that have been taken before the eventual “funa”, Varas stated that “there are many measures (taken) but not measures of force, they are all civilians, of organization”. “We have a huge support network,” he added.
“We’ve put ourselves in every case and we’ve taken action and of course they’re complicated but we can tell them that’s our problem, we have to pay that cost, not the applicants,” he explained.
Finally, on the situation in which the test will be taken, Varas said he proves that “these are difficult conditions but we are going to have to do it in difficult conditions and (achieve) that students do not pay the consequences.”
The boycott adds support
The call to boycott by the Aces added support, in particular, the National Coordinator of Secondary Students (Cones).
According to the Cones, the idea is to unify a discontent against the current educational system, classifying the test as an instance that increases segregation between students.
Natalia Moreno, one of the speakers of the movement, indicated that this Friday a march will be held from Plaza Italia to the Demre to express her displeasure.
Interventions will be added during the weekend and on 6 and 7 January, days on which the exams will be performed.
