Dr. Nicolás Bianco, academic vice-rector of the Central University of Venezuela (UCV), He passed away in the early hours of July 28.at 79 years of age.
The rector of the UCV, Cecilia García Arocha, lamented through her accounts on social networks the physical disappearance of Bianco and assured that her death is a loss for the university and for the country.
Bianco is the fifth authority to die in the exercise of his functions: the rector Enrique Planchart exactly one year ago; the rector of the Universidad Centroccidental Lisandro Alvarado (UCLA) Francesco Leone in 2017; the administrative vice-rector of the University of Zulia (LUZ), María Guadalupe Núñez in June 2016; and in December 2015, the secretary of the Universidad de Oriente, Juan Bolaños Curvelo, passed away.

The wear and tear is the result of the limbo that has remained since 2011 when the TSJ blocked the possibility of holding university elections, due to the fact that the Electoral Chamber and then the Constitutional Court admitted appeals on which there is no decision, which has prevented the renewal of authorities. This year will mark eleven years of this situation, and therefore the absences continue to make a dent in those who hold the positions: resignations, emigration, travel, unpaid leave, health problems and even death.
As established by the regulations of each university, in the event of absolute absence, elections must be called immediately. But as the electoral process has been made impossible by legal means, what corresponds is that the board of directors of each institution designates the person who should be in charge. What happened at USB, after the death of Rector Planchart, was that the CNU handpicked those who should fill the vacancy.
