A propósito disto trago assunto relevante para a comunidade acadêmica que foi
manchete nos jornais:
Diz a Constituição Federal:
“Art. 207. As universidades gozam de autonomia didático-científica,
administrativa e de gestão financeira e patrimonial, e obedecerão ao princípio
de indissociabilidade entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão.
§ 1º É facultado às universidades admitir professores, técnicos e
cientistas estrangeiros, na forma da lei.
§ 2º O disposto neste artigo aplica-se às instituições de pesquisa
científica e tecnológica.”
Dizem os jornais do dia 30 de abril de 2019:
MEC cortará verba de universidade por 'balbúrdia' e já mira UnB, UFF e UFBA
O Ministério da Educação (MEC) vai cortar recursos de universidades que não
apresentarem desempenho acadêmico esperado e, ao mesmo tempo, estiverem
promovendo "balbúrdia" em seus câmpi, afirmou o ministro Abraham Weintraub ao
jornal O Estado de S. Paulo.

Bloqueio de verba de universidade por motivo ideológico fere Constituição
A ameaça do governo Jair Bolsonaro (PSL) de bloquear 30% dos recursos de
custeio de três universidades federais –UnB, UFBA e UFF– por motivos
ideológicos fere a Constituição, segundo especialistas.
A afirmação do ministro, Abraham Weintraub que essas universidades teriam
também fraco desempenho ignora os resultados positivos dessas instituições em
indicadores do ensino superior.

Tirem suas conclusões, por favor. Mas, a mim me parece óbvio o erro do Ministro.
Most problems of teaching are not problems of growth but helping cultivate
growth. As far as I know, and this is only from personal experience in
teaching, I think about ninety percent of the problem in teaching, or maybe
ninety-eight percent, is just to help the students get interested.
