Incompetency on the part of a senior academic official within the University of Guyana has resulted in the tertiary institution losing a Master’s programme. This disclosure was made by Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Jacob Opadeyi.During a recent press conference where he sought to defend moves to have Heads of Departments be nominated rather than merely be elected by fellow members of the University fraternity, he said that this move was premised on a decision to better reflect the existing Statute of the University.He pointed out that “there is nothing in the Statutes that is not in the existing one.”He however said that the newest development within the University to be noted is the recall of a Dean. According to the VC, “Where a Dean is not performing, you cannot allow that person to just continue on…and we have cases like that in this University.”Alluding specifically to the case which resulted in the University losing the Master’s programme,Man Utd Away Kit 2018/19, Opadeyi said that a lecturer managing the programme was not performing and “nobody could touch the person until when that person’s term is finished and the University lost the Master’s programme because of that.”He explained that in the current Statute of the University, the Vice Chancellor appoints the Dean based on the nomination of the Faculty Board and that has not changed. “What has changed is that it is not going to be by elections process…” Professor Opadeyi asserted.He explained that the election system could have shortcomings if, for example, 60 per cent of department members vote for a particular person to function in the capacity of Head of Department while 40 per cent vote dissimilarly.According to Professor Opadeyi it is more than likely that the elected individual would show his/her allegiance to those who voted in his favour and opt to ignore those who didn’t vote favourably.“No organisation has a way where people elect who is Director (and) elect who is the Permanent Secretary…We have no say on those matters, but our system allows for the nomination among those persons and this makes them accountable to the VC,” said Professor Opadeyi.But the unions representing the University workers – the UG Senior Staff Association and University of Guyana Workers’ Union – are adamant that the VC has in fact amended the statutes of the University and employment conditions.They are insisting that this decision was made “without any or very minimal input from the very academic community, these changes are purported to benefit.”They said while the original statute (relating to the appointment of Deans) reads, “The Dean of each Faculty shall be appointed by the Principal and Vice-Chancellor on the nomination of the Board of that Faculty from among the members of the Faculty eligible to hold office,” the amendment reads, “The Dean of each Faculty shall be appointed by the Principal and Vice-Chancellor from among the eligible members of the Faculty, after he would have consulted with the Board of the specific faculty.”The unions believe that the amendment is unnecessary and potentially injurious to the University. They are concerned that the process of fundamentally changing the academic orientation of the University is being done silently and “one might be tempted to say clandestinely – no one knew that the amendment was on the table for consideration, and the document was submitted to council members a mere two days prior to meeting.”With this amendment, the unions believe that the current, and any subsequent VC, will now be responsible for identifying and appointing the Deputy Vice Chancellor, the Deans and Heads of Departments – a situation where all those who hold senior academic appointments will be beholden/accountable to one individual.“With the Council dominated by partisan political appointees, the long term implications of this amendment are even more disturbing and do not bode well for the autonomy and independence of the University,” the union contended.“There are several revisions that would complement the amendment proposed by the VC– including autonomy for faculties and the deans having control over faculties’ finances. These however have not been proposed,” outlined a statement from the unions.Moreover, the unions have observed that under the amendment, deans can be recalled for non-performance although no process governing recall of deans was proposed. “This will also presumably be at the will of one individual – the VC,” the unions have noted.作者: hmxiang0d 時間: 2018-9-15 18:29 標題: Barn och Spädbarn 3706Lapset Cg Chilliwack BomberBelstaff Herr Jackor
ruth in regard to this whole matter?”
“And you can swear this to me?” I uttered, joyfully.
“By my father’s grave, if you desire it,” he returned.
A flood of hope rushed through my heart. I was but a weak woman, and his voice and look at that moment would have affected Ralph Lauren Hoodies the coldest nature.
“I am bound to believe you,” I said; “though there is much I do not understand — much which you ought to explain if you wish to disabuse my mind of all doubt in your regard. I would be laying claim to a cynicism I do not possess, if I did Ralph Lauren Polo Stad not trust your words just so far as you will allow me. But ——” And I must Canada Goose Expedition Parka have assumed an air of severity, for I saw his head droop lower and lower as I gazed at him and forbore to finish my sentence.
“But you believe I am a villain,” he stammered.
“I would fain believe you to be the best and noblest of men,” I Barn och Spädbarn answered, pointedly.
He lifted his head, and the flush of a new emotion swept over his face.
“Why did I not meet you two years ago?” he cried.
The tone was so bitter, the regret expressed so unutterable, I could not help my heart sinking again with the weight of fresh doubt which it brought.
“Would it have been better for me if you North Face Footwear had?” I inquired. “Is the integrity which is dependent upon one’s happiness, or the sympathy of friends, one that a woman can trust to under all circumstances of temptation or trial?”
“I do not know,” he muttered. “I think it would stand Belstaff New Albatros Jackor firm with you for its safeguard and shield.” Then, as he saw Barbour Jacka Dam me draw back with an assumption of coldness I was far from feeling, added gently: “But it was not you, but Rhoda Colwell, I met two years ago, and I know you too well, appreciate you too well, to lay aught but my sincerest homage at your feet, in the hope that, whatever I may have been in Män Jacket the past, the future shall prove me to be not unworthy of your Naiset Cg Trillium Parka CG55 sympathy, and possibly of your regard.”
And, as if he felt the stress of the interview becoming almost too great for even his strength, he turned away from me and began gathering up the toggery Giacca Moncler that lay upon the floor.
“These must not remain here,” he observed, bitterly.
But I, drawn Naiset Cg Livigno Parka this way and that by the most contradictory Lapset Cg Chilliwack Bomber emotions, felt that all had not been said which should be in this important and possibly final interview. Accordingly, smothering personal feeling and steeling myself to look only at my duty, I advanced to his side, and, indicating with a gesture the garments he was now rolling up into a compact mass, remarked:
“This may or may not involve you in some unpleasantness. Rhoda Colwell, who evidently attaches much importance to her discoveries, is not the woman to keep silent in their regard. If she speaks and forces me to speak, I must own the truth, Mr. Pollard. Neither sympathy nor regard could hold me back; for my honor is pledged to the cause of Mr. Barrows, and not even the wreck of my own happiness could deter me from revealing any thing that would explain his death or exonerate his memory. Ilinks:
sertion are truth (assertion not being the same as affirmation), and ignorance is non-contact. For it is not possible to be in error regarding the question what a thing is, save in an accidental sense; and the same holds good regarding non-composite substances (for it is not possible to be in error about them). And they all exist actually, not potentially; for otherwise they would have come to be and ceased to be; but, as it is, being itself does not come to be (nor cease to be); for if it had done Ralph Lauren Flag Polo so it would have had to come out of something. About the things, then, which are essences and actualities, it is not possible to be in error, Canada Goose Mountaineer Jackor but only to know Ralph Lauren Ned Västar them or not to know them. But we do inquire what they are, viz. Ralph Lauren Män whether they are of such and such a nature or not.
(b) As regards the ‘being’ that answers to truth and the ‘non-being’ that answers to falsity, in one case there is truth if the subject and the attribute are Naiset Cg Camp Hooded Jacket really combined, and falsity if they are not combined; in the other case, if the object is existent it exists in a particular way, and if it does not exist in this way does not exist at all. And truth means knowing these objects, and falsity does not Män International Jackets exist, nor error, but only ignorance-and not an ignorance which is like blindness; for blindness is akin to a total absence of the faculty of thinking.
It is evident also that about unchangeable things there can be no error in Canada Goose Snow Mantra Parka respect of time, if we assume them to be unchangeable. E.g. if we suppose that the triangle does not change, we shall not suppose that Canada Goose Montebello Parka at one time its angles are equal to two right angles while at another time they are not (for that would imply change). It is possible, Belstaff Väska however, to suppose that one member of such a class has a certain attribute and another has not; e.g. while we may suppose that no even number is prime, we may suppose that some are and some are not. But regarding a numerically single number not even this form of error is possible; for we cannot in this case suppose that one instance has an attribute and another has not, but whether our judgement be true or false, it is implied that the fact is eternal.
Book X Chapter 1
WE have said previously, Belstaff Jackor in our distinction of the various meanings of words, that ‘one’ has several meanings; the things that are directly and of their own nature and not accidentally called one may be summarized Soft Shell Takki under four heads, though the word is used in more senses. (1) There is the continuous, either in general, or especially that which is continuous by nature and not by contact nor by being together; and of these, that has more unity and is prior, whose movement is more indivisible and simpler. (2) Canada Goose Constable Parka That which is a whole and has a certain shape and form is one in a still higher degree; and especially if a thing is of this sort by nature, and not by force like the things which are unified by glue or nails or by being tied together, i.e. if it has in itself the cause of its continuity. A thing is of this sort because its movement is one and indivisible in place and time; so thlinks:
d of all that occurs.”
“Sire, it shall be done,” Canada Goose Whistler Parka answered General Kissoff.
These words were exchanged about two hours after midnight, at the moment when the fete given at the New Palace was at the height of its splendor.
During the whole evening the bands of the Preobra-jensky and Paulowsky regiments had played without cessation polkas, mazurkas, schottisches, and waltzes from among the choicest of their repertoires. Innumerable couples of dancers whirled through the magnificent saloons of the palace, which stood at a few paces only from the “old house of stones”— in former days the scene of so many terrible dramas, the echoes of whose walls were this night awakened by the gay strains of the musicians.
The grand-chamberlain of the court, was, besides, well seconded in his arduous and delicate duties. The grand-dukes and their aides-de-camp, the chamberlains-in-waiting and other officers of the palace, presided personally in the arrangement of the dances. The grand Moncler Untuvatakki Miehet duchesses, covered with Naiset 3 in 1 Takki diamonds, the ladies-in-waiting in their most exquisite costumes, set the example to Belstaff Gangster Mit Jackor Jackor the wives of the military and civil dignitaries of the ancient “city of white stone.” When, therefore, the signal for the Belstaff Jackor “polonaise” resounded through the saloons, and the guests of all ranks took part in that measured promenade, which on occasions of this kind has all the importance of a national dance, the mingled costumes, the sweeping robes adorned with lace, and uniforms covered with orders, presented a scene of dazzling splendor, lighted by hundreds of lusters multiplied tenfold by Belstaff Herr Jackor the numerous mirrors adorning the walls.
The grand saloon, the finest of all those contained in the New Palace, formed to this procession of exalted personages and splendidly dressed women a frame worthy of the magnificence they displayed. The rich ceiling, with its gilding already softened by the touch of time, appeared as if glittering with stars. The embroidered drapery of the curtains and doors, falling in gorgeous folds, assumed rich and varied hues, broken by the shadows of the heavy masses of damask.
Through the panes of the vast semicircular bay-windows the light, with which the saloons were filled, shone forth with the brilliancy of a conflagration, vividly illuminating the gloom in which for some hours the palace had been shrouded. The attention Canada Goose Livigno Parka of those of the guests not taking part in the dancing was attracted Belstaff New Toxic Blouson Jackor by the contrast. Resting in the recesses of the windows, they could discern, standing out dimly in Lapset Cg Expedition Parka the darkness, the vague outlines of the countless towers, domes, and spires which adorn the ancient city. Below the sculptured balconies were visible numerous sentries, pacing silently up and down, their rifles carried horizontally on the shoulder, and the spikes of their helmets glittering like flames in the glare Ralph Lauren Polo Stad of light issuing Ralph Lauren Jackets from the palace. The steps also of the patrols could be heard beating time on the stones beneath with even more North Face Footwear regularity than the feet of the dancers on the floor of the saloon.
