Cohérent avec le ministère qui demande à l'université de réfléchir à un scénario avec -30% d'étudiant⋅es (!) d'ici 5-10 ans.
[ #VeilleESR #Parcoursup ] Il vient de se passer un truc extraordinaire : le gouvernement a atteint un de ses objectifs.
Celui de baisser la part des néobachliers recevant une proposition dans Parcoursup.
C'est sans doute une date historique, le début de démassification éducative, .

Des ERC mais en deux mois je ne peux pas avoir un badge d'accès pour un chercheur international qui a obtenu une chaire. "C'est compliqué". Quand je vais à Cambridge comme invitée, ils savent que j'arrive et j'ai un badge en une demi seconde. Fin de la blague.

À Rouen, une étudiante dénonce une tentative de viol sur le campus et l’attitude de l’université
En novembre 2024, Samia a dénoncé une tentative de viol sur le campus Pasteur de l’université de Rouen-Normandie. Par la suite, un dispositif spécial lui avait permis de poursuivre sa licence chez elle. Mais cette année, l’université a refusé de le reconduire, malgré plusieurs certificats médicaux.

It's hard to overstate how excited I am about suffixient sets and the new path decomposition variant!
This preprint is a quick writeup to go with Nicola's CPM talk yesterday.
I hope to eventually write a blog about it, but here's some conceptual highlights. 1/
