The Philosophy and Arts Faculties at UNC published institutional statements in support of Cristina Kirchner. The statements describe the Supreme Court's ruling as "a political proscription" and attack the Argentine judicial system. For many people in Córdoba, this is seen as a new display of partisan alignment with Kirchnerism. On social media, reactions came quickly. Many pointed out the use of state-funded academic spaces for partisan purposes. The tone of the statements caused rejection even among sectors critical of the national government. Both faculties published their statements from official accounts. This sparked a heated discussion about the politicization of educational institutions. UNC is once again at the center of the debate over the ideological use of its structures.
