Under Secretary of Education Raúl Figueroa denied that hiring Francisco Sólanich Aguirre had nothing to do with the situation facing Universidad del Pacífico. "The professional characteristics of people who join the ministry at work have nothing to do with this situation at the Universidad del Pacífico and we judge people according to their professional merit."
Francisco Sólanich Aguirre, the new chief of communications of the Ministry of Justice Education (Mineduc), was last month the Dean of Communications and Design of the University of the Pacific, an institution currently immersed in a serious financial crisis that is about to close.
Sólanich was also director of the School of Public Relations at least until 2017. Even today, he still holds the position of professor of this career.
Accessed by Biobío, Undersecretary of Education, Raúl Figueroa, denied that his contracts were related to the situation that the Universidad del Pacífico was facing. "The professional characteristics of people who join the ministry at work have nothing to do with this situation of the Universidad del Pacífico and we judge people according to their professional merit."
However, they challenged this appointment with the opposition. The PPD senator and member of the Education Commission, Jaime Quintana, badured that there was clearly conflict of interest. "The ministry's communications officer occupies an extremely important position, as it is a ministry that has also opted for a solid line of communication, as we saw in Aula Segura, and so the one who is recruiting at the universities we work with today, I think the government has to be able to separate things and we obviously have a conflict of interest. "
Owners of the Universidad del Pacífico have until December 7 to present a plan of action to the Ministry of Education to ensure the end of this school year and its unfolding in 2019. [19659007]
