Re: [LIS-Forum] STEP MOTHERLY TREATMENT TOWARDS THE LIBRARY SCIENCE PROFESSIONALS IN UNIVERSITY OF KERALA (Dr. A.T. Francis)
by Chitra Vimal 20 Dec '12

20 Dec '12

I too support Dr. A T Francis in his opinion. Kerala University has permitted Part-Time PhD for teachers in Govt. and aided colleges in the Kerala State, for contract lecturers appointed in teaching and research centres attached to the University Depts., UIT centres and KUCTE and also to those working as Library Staff in the University of Kerala with a minimum of three years experience. It is quite a matter to think about. If UGC-NET is an essential qualification for college librarians in aided and Govt Colleges as it is required for the teaching staff, and if the college librarians are eligible to avail FIP as in the case of teaching staff in colleges, then why are they not given the chance to do part time PhD? Why only teaching staff are given that privilege? Authorities should really think over the matter and they should remember that if these aided and Govt colleges are offering Library and Information Science Courses, then these librarians definitely would have a chance for being a teaching professional. Then why this discrimination?? Chitra S.

UGC Cheated while Declaring UGC-NET June 2012 supplimentary results-reg.
by Kiran 19 Dec '12

19 Dec '12

Dear Professional Friends, The UGC declared UGC-NET June 2012 results two times. The supplementary results declared by the UGC has given remark as pass for the following General category students who have scored 63.43% instead of 65.00%. This has also happened in OBC and SC/ST Category also. For more information you can visit http://www.ugcnetonline.in/marksDisplay.php webpage and cross check the role numbers listed below (Supplementary result sheet). I want to ask how the UGC passed the students who scored less than 65.00% in General Category and Similarly in other category also. The role numbers listed 15590114, 16590087, 16590256, 17590023, 17590040, 10590014, 11590017, 12590048, 12590070, 12590074, 12590126, 1259018, 12590574, 12590669, 15590114, 16590087, 16590256, 17551494 have passed UGC by scoring 63.43% in General Category. The UGC has not announced on what criteria they have reduced the pass percentage form 65% to 63.43%. The UGC raised the qualifying marks to 15% in each category while announcing the results. Then how they passed 63.43% scored candidate that has to be clarified. The 63.43% cannot be rounded to 64.00% or 65.00%. The UGC is fooling the students by announcing results like this. Dear Professionals let us support Kerala High Court Decission and fight against UGC. -- *G.
