Hard Day at ENAH: Suspension of Activities Due to Security Shake-up

Monday kicked off with a twist for the National School of Anthropology and History (ENAH) as they announced a sudden halt to academic activities, effective immediately, due to a shift in the security services provider for the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) buildings.

The school's social media accounts later confirmed this change, stating that all academic and administrative activities were temporarily on hold on June 2nd, as the transition from the Mexico City Police Auxiliary to private security company SSS Assistance and Supervision, S.A. DE C.V., along with Practical Security Systems of Private Security, S.A. DE C.V., required some adjustment.

According to a published report, the Mexico City Police Auxiliary had previously handled INAH's security, but they failed to meet the constitutional requirement for providing the "best available conditions" in terms of cost, quality, timing, and more. As a result, the security services tender issued by INAH went to the new providers.

A confidential source disclosed that ENAH wasn't the only building affected by the security confusion. Other INAH premises, including the Center for Historical Studies, reportedly experienced a similar predicament, leaving their administrators to double up as security guards during this transition period.

The uncertainties surrounding the changes in security providers have left the academic community buzzing on social media. Despite reassurances from INAH, there are rumors circulating that crucial locations like museums and archaeological sites could face reduced security.

Change, especially in sensitive areas like security, can be concerning. While INAH is working to provide reassurance, it's essential to monitor the situation and ensure the safety and well-being of all those involved.
