translated from Spanish: National Institute will begin classes with interim rector and without police shelter

Next Thursday, March 5 is the date decreed for the return to classes of the students of the municipal schools of the commune of Santiago, including the National Institute, a company’s establishment that will also have a rect acting because the public contest to elect a new director was declared desert. In this regard the mayor of Santiago, Felipe Alessandri, pointed out to the middle Emol that “We call public competition and unfortunately it was declared desert (…) we’re going to have an interim rector while we do another contest and we expect the best, most qualified person to arrive.” The building further indicated that the current interim rector, Lilí Orell, is only in office until 28 February, “by personal decision”. The mayor also assured that there will be no police shelter during the start of classes at the National Institute, and stated that the educational establishment “will be functioning normally, with all the shelters we always take and believing a lot that the dialogue is the only way forward, and that violence must be condemned in all its forms.” The mayor also stated that Education Directorate “has maintained contact with students and proxys” and indicated that he hopes to generate face-to-face meetings with students, to “always encourage dialogue,” noting that in any case “if there are facts of violence, we will have as a supportholder ask the police, who are the ones in charge, to restore order.”
