Dear Colleagues,

Greek universities are facing a new legislation that will lead to
their demise through major and sudden changes including the full
privatisation of research, the disappearance of academic departments
and the ostracism of democracy from academic life. Greek universities
this year have already lost more than 50% of their funds. Please help
us by signing the international petition found here:
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?GRUNIV
and by forwarding this email to colleagues who may be willing to help.
You can also find the texts of our petition to the international
academic community, under the title "Greek Universities in Danger" (in
greek, in english, in italiano, in der deutschen and Française) here:

Thanks for your invaluable help!
All the very best,

On behalf of the Initiative of Greek Academics,
Pavlos Pantazis
