From Reuters:

France's 85 universities are struggling. They have slipped down international league tables, many are overcrowded, lacking funds and facilities and losing their best staff to better paid jobs in the United States or elsewhere.

What is more, France's brightest students are desperate to get into the Grandes Ecoles, a group of small, prestigious, highly selective higher education institutions.

President Nicolas Sarkozy has decided to tackle the problem.

He wants to push through a reform this summer that will give universities greater independence to make them more competitive and put French universities back on the world map.
