Kamat is going to be the "Moderator" of the debate on >"Should Goa University go Central?" one might as well write the conclusion >before it starts! >Whether it is the Infotech Board or the Goa Education Commission, M.S. >has >been a party to 'Recommendations" without any data whatsoever to >support such >recommendations. There are always willing persons, willing >to lend their >names to a report that has little content .... or >value .... as long as they >are paid handsomely for it. That is a very important point. Politicians always want willing accomplices from the civil society, to justify their actions. And many are available I guess for a few pieces of silver, or for a foreign trip or two. >What does an International Cricket Stadium at Tivim have to do with >Infotech? >Perhaps, the same thing that a Convention Centre has to do with >a Central >University!! I wonder if prof. Madhav Kamat and other members on the Infotech board understand the difference between software and underware. When such people are appointed on the board, anything can happen. regards, Samir --------------------------------------------------------------------------- **** http://www.GOANET.org **** --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tri Continental Film Festival 2008 July 25 - 30, 2008 Goa, India http://www.moviesgoa.org/page/tri_continental/ http://www.moviesgoa.org/tricon/schedule_2008.pdf ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
