The attack on the RSU. humanitarian catastrophe

On December 4, the Embassy of the Republic of India in Moscow solemnly opened the exhibition “Wonders of a Faraway Country…”, which presented artworks by students of the Art Design Training Center and the College of the Humanities.

His Excellency Mr. Pankaj Saran, Indian Ambassador to the Russian Federation solemnly opened the exhibition with a welcoming speech. In his speech, Mr. Ambassador expressed his gratitude to all those who today study India, its history, culture and language. Mr. Ambassador thanked the university administration for supporting student activities, which serve as an engine for the development of Russian-Indian relations
The creative work done makes a great contribution to the understanding between the two great countries. According to the Indian Ambassador to Russia, today it is important to establish contacts between the young generations of the friendly countries of Russia and India.

Efim Iosifovich Pivovar, President of the Russian State Humanitarian University, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. In his speech, E. I. Pivovar emphasized that the exhibition of paintings is not just a demonstration of the achievements of RSUH students, it is “a project aimed at the future”. According to Yefim Iosifovich, it is the youth that will determine the nature of future Russian-Indian relations. It was correctly noted that in the culture of Russia there are Indian motifs, and in the culture of India we can find trends in the culture of our country.
In conclusion, E.I. The brewer thanked the organizers of the event, noting the special role of the International Scientific and Educational Center for the Study of South Asia and director A. A. Stolyarov, the Art Design Training Center, the multi-vector activities of the international cooperation department of the Russian State University for the Humanities under the leadership of V. I. Zabotkina. The final was the thesis that the future is in the hands of the younger generation and it depends on them what kind of world we will live in.

Galina Viktorovna Volkova, Candidate of Historical Sciences, Associate Professor, Head of the Art Design Training Center, noted in her speech that the idea of ​​the project originated in Tarusa. She also thanked everyone who was involved in the creation of this wonderful event.

Tatyana Igorevna Borisova, head of the creative project of student works, member of the international association "Union of Designers", in her speech spoke about the techniques used by students in their work (watercolor, engraving, monotype, computer graphics). She emphasized that the students were inspired by the culture and history of India.

Declaring the university ineffective, an anonymous letter about corruption, endless articles and various rumors on the Internet… Gaude figured out what is still going on around RSUH and how teachers and students feel about it.

"Urgent Gathering of Courageous Students"

“Of course, everyone noticed this plot,” Ivan Drobyshev, a student of the Faculty of History, Political Science and Law (FIPP) of the Russian State Humanitarian University, tells me. “He himself seemed very obviously rude.”

Ivan talks about the plot shown in Arkady Mamontov's program "Special Correspondent: Elimination of Illiteracy" on December 18th. It showed not only the actual purchase of diplomas in the Kaluga and Mytishchi branches of the Russian State Humanitarian University, but also personnel with repairs at the Faculty of History, Political Science and Law with a hint of devastation at the head university. These shots aroused indignation among students and teachers of the faculty. The fact is that this year the FIPP moved to the building on Miusskaya, because a rather large part of the space in the historic building of the Russian State Humanitarian University on Nikolskaya Street had to be given to the Russian Orthodox Church. Now only students of the Historical and Archival Institute of the Russian State University for the Humanities study in that building. And on Miusskaya, part of the tenants were driven away and the premises vacated by them are being repaired.

A few days later, the corruptionrggu.net website appeared on the network, on which anonymous signers talked about terribly bad things at the RSUH.

Excited students began to communicate with each other and with teachers

“We have advanced departments where specialists study mass communications, there are professional journalists, and I myself study and work in the field of public relations - we are taught to identify information attacks,” Ivan continues. “We - well, at least , this part of the faculty - immediately saw a targeted information order. Others simply wondered why they denigrated the university, showed footage of our building being repaired, against the background of which they talk about devastation, total corruption and other nonsense, then this site ... "

Excited students began to communicate with each other and with teachers, and soon gathered a meeting of the Student Council of the Faculty. The meeting on social networks was called the "Urgent Meeting of Courageous Students." According to Ivan, about fifty or sixty people came, they didn’t fit in anymore: people came, saw the crowd, asked to be kept informed and left. Among those who came there were several graduates and teachers, mostly students of FIPP.

All this happened exactly at the height of the scandal with the reorganization of the RSTEU. Ivan says that many students were afraid that the same thing would happen to their "native" university.

“Are you completely crazy?!”

At about the same time, on December 22, the Internet “blew up” a tweet by deputy Khinshtein: “Minister @DmitryLivanov continues to bend his line. Next week, RSUH Rector E. Pivovar will be fired. The next step is the merger of the Russian State University for the Humanities with the Russian State Social University or the Higher School of Economics. Students were outraged in social networks: “Bastards!”, “Are you completely crazy ?!”, “I hoped that this would remain at the level of rumors. I will strike." “Will they let you finish your studies?” - Worried about friends others.

deputies have not yet written such things

Why the deputy decided to write this is still a mystery. He retracted his words the next day. According to students and teachers, rumors about the merger of RSUH with some university have been circulating for many years, but never come true. Although the deputies have not yet written such things.

Many Russian universities are restless even now. Against the backdrop of a campaign to combat inefficient universities, the Ministry is eyeing every little thing. What was it like for students to see in mid-December the already mentioned site, the authors of which painted how bad and terrible things were at the RSUH. Here is the rating of corrupt officials within the university with a vote, and a letter to Vladimir Putin. “The last straw was the inclusion of the Russian State University for the Humanities in the list of inefficient universities,” the anonymous authors were indignant. because salary at the RSUH is hardly enough for rent and travel? “Of course, we have low salaries, but this is the case everywhere. Do you think MSU pays more? Nothing of the kind, I specifically asked colleagues from Moscow State University, ”retorted Tatyana Volkova, a teacher at the Russian State University for the Humanities, in a commentary for Gaude. More than five professors of the Russian State University for the Humanities took to the blogs to expose the letter, some directly calling it fake and propaganda. Unknown authors of the site sent an appeal to the media with the only contact - this is Mayoradze Mikhail Valentinovich. No one could find such a person, not a single journalist ever got through to the specified number.

This is, of course, an organized campaign.

“Recently, there has been a sharp stream of all sorts of incomprehensible materials regarding the Russian State Humanitarian University and, in particular, the faculty where I have been teaching for 12 years,” Viktor Mikaelson, teacher of the Russian State Humanitarian University, head of the Communicator PR agency, told students of the FIPP. campaign - as a consulting company we have been working in social networks and on the Internet for seven years and we know very well how such campaigns are organized. Websites with voting results, leaks - all these technologies are known.

Expectation?

In mid-January, the site disappeared. “I believe it stopped working as it was a one-time project. His main task was to inject compromising evidence and slander the people mentioned there," says Dmitry Belyaev, lecturer at the Russian State University for the Humanities and Deputy Dean of the FIPP. changes in administration. According to my impressions, the situation with the university is aggravated both by external pressure, since the new leadership of the Ministry of Education and Science is clearly dissatisfied with the administration of the university, and the struggle for power within the RSUH itself, which has intensified under these conditions.”

“Various reasons were expressed at the student meeting. No one really knows the truth: who is it, what is it. We do not yet see the obvious reasons and the customer,” Ivan Drobyshev reflects. “It is not clear how long it is worth looking into. Right now there is a decree that creates a joint scientific and educational center with the FSO, there is a decree on cooperation with Rosmolodezh. Maybe it's all for this. You just can't say for sure yet. People are ready to participate, we are ready to resist information attacks. The first wave somehow managed, we follow the news and keep active.”

The scandal with the list of "inefficient universities" may end with the liquidation of one of the flagships of the domestic liberal arts education - the Russian State Humanitarian University. According to Rosbalt, a replacement has already been found for the disgraced rector of this university, and the university itself is threatened with a merger with the Higher School of Economics or the RSSU.

As it became known to Rosbalt, the resignation of the current rector of the RSUH Efim Pivovar may occur as early as March. The formal reason for this will be a meeting in the government, at which officials will sum up the interim results of the optimization and reorganization of the so-called "inefficient universities".

Recall that earlier in the "black" list prepared by the Ministry of Education and Science, in addition to the Russian State Humanitarian University, also included the Moscow Architectural Institute, the Literary Institute and other eminent universities. As it turned out, the university does not meet the criteria for teachers' salaries, study area per student, etc.

As a result, the Russian State University for the Humanities was included in the group of universities that are subject to optimization, which, among other things, involves a possible change in leadership and adjustment of curricula.

An agency source close to the university leadership said that the rector no longer puts his signature on any important internal documents, although he still regularly goes to work and holds various meetings.

Pivovar's impending resignation is also supported by the fact that the most valuable and respected employees in university circles have begun to leave the university. So, recently it became known about the appointment of the vice-rector of the RSUH for scientific work, Dmitry Bak, as the new director of the Literary Museum. This personnel reshuffle occurred at the suggestion of the head of the Ministry of Culture, Vladimir Medinsky, who, as you know, is on friendly terms with the Minister of Education Dmitry Livanov.

According to some reports, Pivovar, who has headed the Russian State Humanitarian University since 2006, had to leave his post before January 15. “As part of optimizing the work of the university, one of the conditions was put forward for him to retain his position - to remove the first vice-rector of the RSUH Valery Minaev from work, but he never completed this task,” the agency’s interlocutor said.

Minaev is known not only as one of the founders and, perhaps, the most venerable old-timers of the Russian State Humanitarian University, created in the early 1990s on the basis of the Moscow Institute of History and Archives. It is believed that it was he who brought the infamous YUKOS to the Russian State Humanitarian University, which for some time successfully sponsored this university. At one time, the university was even called a "forge of personnel for Yukos", and one of the ex-heads of this company, the former rector of the Russian State Humanitarian University, Leonid Nevzlin, was approved for this post, as they say, at the direct suggestion of Minaev.

After Nevzlin fled from Russia to Israel, hiding from the persecution of the special services, Minaev was twice elected rector of the Russian State Humanitarian University, but both times the Ministry of Education and Science refused to approve his candidacy.

Instead, Efim Pivovar was put in charge of the university, who, although he worked until 1997 at the Russian State Humanitarian University, is clearly associated with another well-known university - Moscow State University, where for a long time he headed the center for theoretical problems of historical research at the Faculty of History.

With the departure of Yukos and the arrival of Pivovar, the university, as they say, its teachers and graduates began to "slowly bend." “The last time a real renovation of the classrooms in the main building on Novoslobodskaya was done in the early 2000s, and there’s nothing to say about the state of the buildings on Nikolskaya - everything has long since fallen into disrepair and is a sad sight,” one of the teachers complained in an interview with a Rosbalt correspondent RGGU.

At the same time, according to him, repairs are regularly carried out in the premises of the administrative and economic block - the reception room of the rector himself, as well as educational and economic departments.

The average salary of an associate professor at the RSUH, with a workload of 750 hours, does not exceed 25-27 thousand rubles a month, professors are paid a little more - 30 thousand rubles. “Moreover, teachers were warned that the workload would only grow, what kind of scientific activity can we talk about here?”, The agency interlocutor was indignant.

So the claims of the Ministry of Education and Science regarding the state of the material and technical base of the university, as well as the low remuneration of the teaching staff, cannot be considered completely unfounded.

Another thing is that even an outside observer could easily notice that recently an undisguised information war has unfolded against the university, in which, by the way, the competition for admission sometimes exceeds 30 people per place.

So, a couple of weeks ago, the Accounts Chamber announced the misuse of additional budget funds by the Russian State Humanitarian University in the amount of 156.2 million rubles. It turned out that the money intended for the development of the material and technical base was spent by the university management on raising the salaries of teachers.

On the same day, the creators of a certain site "corruptionrggu.net" called on Runet users to a heartbreaking excerpt from Vladimir Vysotsky's song "Save Our Souls!" to sign an anonymous letter to Vladimir Putin, which cited facts of nepotism and bribery at the RSUH.

However, as it turned out later, the letter turned out to be a fake, and the site itself is no longer available to Internet visitors.

Nevertheless, a nervous atmosphere reigns in the university. “There were rumors that a certain rating would be held among the teachers, as a result of which many would be reduced. They are also allegedly going to artificially transfer bonuses for academic degrees into the salaries of teachers and, due to this, to achieve their fictitious increase, ”the university said.

Meanwhile, according to Rosbalt, Sergei Zuev, rector of the Moscow Higher School of Social and Economic Sciences (MVSES), is being considered for Pivovar's place. Concurrently, he also holds several other positions in other Moscow universities, works closely with state authorities and is even an expert at the Council of Europe.

It is difficult to imagine how, with such employment, the new rector, in the event of his transfer to work at the RSUH, will cope with the task of optimizing the university.

According to the agency, the appointment of Zuev as the Rector of the Russian State Humanitarian University is being lobbied by the Deputy Head of the Government of the Russian Federation Arkady Dvorkovich. In this regard, the more frequent rumors about the upcoming merger of the Russian State University for the Humanities with the Higher School of Economics or the RSSU may not be groundless.

As the interlocutors of the agency note, it is likely that it will soon become clear that a very specific commercial interest is hidden behind the inclusion of this university in the list of “inefficient” ones, as well as personnel changes.

So, according to realtors, the cost of a square meter of real estate in the Novoslobodskaya area, where the main building of the Russian State Humanitarian University is located, is at least 200 thousand rubles. It is also known that the ROC has long claimed the university buildings on Nikolskaya Street.

RSUH teachers sent a statement to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation and the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation demanding to investigate the facts of corruption in the university

In connection with the misuse of 156.2 million rubles by the leadership of the Russian State University for the Humanities revealed by the Accounts Chamber, the teaching staff of the university, who had previously sent a letter to V. Putin with a request to stop corruption at the university, sent a statement to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation and the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation with a request to investigate facts of corruption. gives the text of the appeal in full.

To the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation Chaika Yu.Ya.
To the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation Bastrykin A.I.

From the teaching staff of the Russian State University for the Humanities (RSUH)

Dear Yuri Yakovlevich and Alexander Ivanovich,

The information that the Accounts Chamber found violations in connection with the misuse of 156.2 million rubles, as well as the abuse of authority in terms of disposing of property assigned to the university, only confirmed what most RSUH employees know about. Corruption flourishes at the university, which in many ways became the reason that the university, which has almost 100 years of history, was included in the list of inefficient higher institutions in Russia.

In response to the statements of the Accounts Chamber about the misuse of 156.2 million rubles, the leadership of the Russian State Humanitarian University claims that the money was used to increase the salaries of the teaching staff. But is this true and to whom did this money go?

Many residents of the country could hear V. Putin's speech at a meeting with rectors of higher educational institutions in February 2012 about the need to raise the salary of university faculty from September to a level no lower than the average for the region's economy. The state allocated an additional 2.65 billion rubles to increase the payroll funds for teachers. In many universities, the salary situation has changed, but at the RSUH for ordinary teachers it has remained the same deplorable. The Minister of Education and Science D. Livanov pointed this out to the Rector of the Russian State Humanitarian University E. Pivovar at a meeting in November this year. It seems that the minister did not share the generosity of the university leadership, which established for October-December bonuses for ordinary teachers, depending on the position, from 2,000 to 3,700 rubles a month.

In total, the university has 1,900 teachers, half of whom have another organization as their main place of work. The usual monthly salary of an ordinary teacher without deducting taxes is about 18 thousand rubles, about 29 thousand rubles for a candidate of sciences for the position of associate professor, and 35 for a doctor of sciences for a professorship. In all cases, this is less than the average salary in Moscow of 45.6 thousand rubles.

From the information on the RSUH website and the speeches of Rector E. Pivovar, teachers learned that the average salary at the university is 48.6 thousand rubles. But most teachers have never received such a tangible amount for their hard work. Where did she come from? The answer is quite simple: you just need to remember the folk wisdom about the chicken - someone ate two, the other none, in the end it turns out that everyone enjoyed one chicken. Approximately the same situation is in the university, only not every second eats here, but at best every twentieth.

In 2011, the university spent 1,639.4 million rubles on wages and other payments. Even if we calculate that 1,000 people work full-time and another 1,000 part-time at half and a quarter of the rate, then each should account for 1 million 93 thousand rubles a year or 91 thousand rubles a month. Consequently, if the monthly income of the bulk is less than 30,000, then the remaining two-thirds is received by someone else. Who could it be?

Probably, the one who occupies a leading position in the university, although it would be more correct to say positions, because. Few of the tops are limited to one. The top three in terms of the number of leadership positions is as follows. 1st place - Arkhipova Nadezhda Ivanovna - director of the Institute of Economics, Management and Law; Dean of the Faculty of Management; Head of the Department of Organizational Development; Head of the Department of State and Municipal Administration. 2nd place - Logunov Alexander Petrovich - Dean of the Faculty of History, Political Science and Law; Head of the Department of Modern Russian History; Head of the Department of Culture, Peace and Democracy. 3rd place - Shkarenkov Pavel Petrovich - Dean of the Faculty of History and Philology; Head of the Department of the History of the Ancient World; Director of the Educational and Scientific Center for Global Studies and Comparative Studies. The presence of two leadership positions is the norm for a university. It is the guiding ones, because certain deans and heads of departments are still listed as professors in the departments of their friends. Almost everywhere, the combination of the positions of the dean of the faculty and the head of one of the departments of the faculty. For all these positions, managers receive money. If we add positions in the management of dissertation councils and other structures to this number, then the total number of positions will be horrendous. The most surprising thing is that these people are not in the least embarrassed by such a number of positions, but rather boast about it, talking about their universal demand.

In addition to the desire to occupy as many positions as possible at the Russian State University for the Humanities, nepotism is no less common. The record holder by a wide margin here is the director-dean-head of the department-head of the department Arkhipova N.I. Her daughter, Krapchatova Irina Nikolaevna, is the head of the department of criminal law and procedure and the head of the forensic laboratory at the institute led by her mother. And her husband, Alexander Ivanovich Krapchatov, is in charge of the laboratory of active learning methods (business games) at the mother-in-law's institute. The functions of this division are to maintain office equipment and purchase cartridges, which for all other institutes and faculties are carried out by specialized departments of the university.

On January 17, 2013, the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation stated that the university exceeds the authority to dispose of the property assigned to the university. What is really behind this "dry" formulation?

Each student must have at least 13 sq. meters of buildings, in the RSUH less than 10 square meters. meters. And this despite the fact that this indicator took into account all the premises available at the university. But most of the rooms are not intended for students at all. Students and teachers of the university are well aware of the conditions in which they have to study: small, stuffy, shabby rooms and basements. There is only one building in the university, and even then it is not completely given over to study - the 2nd. True, there are only 2 elevators in it and two-thirds of the students of the university have classes, so you have to either walk up to the 8th-9th floors or wait in line for an elevator for 20 minutes. The rest consists almost entirely of offices, third-party offices, rooms and hostels for strangers pacing the corridors in a towel after a shower. At the same time, management at all levels works in large luxuriously decorated offices with spacious reception rooms with several secretaries. The rector's apartments, for example, are decorated in the classical style like in the best palaces in the world and reach several hundred meters. At the same time, teachers, along with undergraduate and graduate students, mixed with laboratory assistants and methodologists, huddle in small rooms-departments and corridors. This is what it looks like at a cursory glance at the Russian State University for the Humanities. It's a shame, but a university with unique roots and history is not much today.

We ask law enforcement agencies to respond to the situation at the Russian State Humanitarian University, which threatens the entire system of Russian education. We ask that employees who are noticed on the facts of corruption be suspended from work, and criminal cases are opened on the facts of corruption, which must be brought to an end. We note that even documented crimes in the course of corrupt recruitment of students to the university or the financial and economic activities of the institute have not been investigated, and the perpetrators have not yet been punished. Education is the only thing that can pull Russia out of the abyss. The future of every person in our country depends on whether Russia has a chance to preserve and increase its educational potential.
