SUPPORT OUR ACTION
WE WANT REFORMS
– A democratic university open to all (3% of workers)
– Real, practical hospital training
– Medicine of quality and equality
AS:
– until now training hasn’t been appropriate to today’s circumstances
– selection wasn’t made on the basis of skills but on the number of places available in the Faculty
BECAUSE:
– our country is medically underdeveloped
– there are 8000 enrolments in C.P.E.M. and 2500 places available in the first year
OUR TALKS ARE POSITIVE
But we need:
– office supplies
– paper for the Faculty newsletters
– funding
HELP OUR MOVEMENT MORALLY AND FINANCIALLY

FACULTY OF MEDICINE
Medical students no longer want a news service controlled by the Police.
This Friday, throughout France, the Action Committees are organising rallies to support the 13,000 Workers of the ORTF that the Government would like to keep quiet; as well as to explain the political dimension of their struggle.
A rally for the Faculty has been organised for 6pm in LECTURE ROOM BINET, followed by a discussion.
The fighting, which has gone on since May 3, has shown that it’s in the streets, in the lecture rooms, through the occupation of workplaces, that the State can be made to retreat.
Everywhere, the struggle can lead to a definitive Victory.
Let’s find new ways to cut down Gaullism and to prepare the Workers’ victory.
EVERYONE COME TO LECTURE ROOM BINET, FRIDAY 7TH AT 6PM.

Cross of Lorraine
(3 June 1968, Fac Medicine)
Black screen-print on newsprint
This poster was released just after de Gaulle had announced the election to be held at the end of June.
The Cross of Lorraine (Croix de Lorraine) was the symbol of Free France (the government-in-exile led by Charles de Gaulle) during World War 2, and was retained by de Gaulle after the war as the symbol of his political movement: Gaullism.
So here we have a depiction of the generic French voter with de Gaulle’s symbol screwed right into his brain.
