Such a silly article. The students of the Sorbonne have long been an integral part of French politics, even when my Great-Grandmother graduated from the Sorbonne in 1876. The Sorbonne educates independent people who can think for themselves - long before 1968, as they were founded in 1257. By contrast, virtually all French politicians, including Jacques Chirac and Dominique de Villepin, are taught conformity and group-think at schools founded by Charles de Gaulle. French politicians attend college at Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris and attend graduate school at ENA (École nationale d'administration) which was founded by Charles de Gaulle in 1945. "Be quiet, don't rock the boat, and move up in the government civil service," they bleat -- just as their shepherd de Gaulle taught them. This poster from 1968 illustrates the de Gaulle maxim which all of his protégés follow. Be young and say nothing upload.wikimedia.org There is an inherent conflict between the independent graduates of the Sorbonne, and the tired conformist thinking of politicians from the Gaullist schools of politique. .
