| Sorry i forgot to a very important word to my comment.the word"POOR" achievement of the Dean Science. Furthermore Council should take in due consideration his unbecoming with staff and the severe warning he got from Staff Cttee. A staff even reported him to the police. Il n'a pas l'etoffe d'un Dean et pire d'un VC. IL est un NUL! |

| I fully agree with Observer. That's why it is better to have strangers rather than Mauritians because the latter like to invite 'palabres', backbiting and now you sill see the number of anonymous letters |

puisqu'ils sont les plus diplomes que les non academiques et qu'ils sont dans tous les domaines superieurs je leur souhaite bon courage. assainissez l'universite. en avant toute. |

| We strongly hope that Council take a good decision re the appointment of VC. There are rumors that the Dean of Science will be appointed. Council should take into consideration his achievement as Dean and also as Chairman CWA. Il a ete mis a la porte. hahahahahhahaha! |

| mr ismael. the proofs you are talking about are all subjective issues. tell me what to do with a minister of tertiary if he cannot call mr conrad on a regular basis to discuss policies . |

|
| In his statement on radio plus yesterday,16 Jan 2012, Morgan used the words 'NOT MANY CONSPIRACY' and DID NOT TALK at all about interference from the minister, these are two different things, beside UMASU have proofs of interferences from the ministry giving direct orders to the VC.....Some were published in the newspaper during last week end.
Mr Govind should listen to the interview well before making any comments...pufffs |
|
| govind |
|
| thats what is called a healthy democracy. one is free to voice his opinion even if one is wrong. after what conrad said today that there is no interference of the minister i would like to hear the opinions of those who dreamed guess that |

| I am in total agreement with dummy regarding abolition of the post of PRO. may be because she is political nominee and the reason of this comment. Why should only Dr Morgan be accountable to Jeetah? |
|
| Three Idiots |
|
| The THREE IDIOTS of the UoM are trying to fool mauritians. Jeetah,Jugessur and Goorah are responsible for the departure of Morgan. This is the only truth. They are now as usual communal or cast as escape goats. The PM is watching all these three idiots (who believe they are clever) and rest assured their downfall is near. Thank you Morgan for having initiated the reform, no worry, this will be implemented and your name will be engraved in golden letters in the history of the UoM and in the memories of Mauritians.

I do not understand the comments of some frustrated people. The title of this Forum is clear : Que pensez-vous du départ prématuré du vice-chancelier de l’université de Maurice ? What has the PRO got to do with that matter ? If you have an axe to grind against the PRO, better face her personally instead of hiding behind a dummy. On campus it is a well known fact that the PRO is being systematically boycotted on all occasions. The show is being orchestrated by only 2 persons and their puppets for benefits ( very substantial ! ) of only one person. May I seize this opportunity to thank Professor Morgan for the good work done on Reduit Campus ? We will miss you.

| Non Academic Staff of UoM |
|
| Not one single category of non academic staff will be worst off with the Morgan's reform. In fact, Assistant Registrars and Administrative Officers will have more promotional prospects with the creation of new posts in the new proposed structure. One person forming part of the UoM Council and supposedly representing interests of non academic staff has been propagating rumors that this reform will result in a decrease of existing privileges of lower grade staff. This is absolutely false. He is just using his position to sabotage the plan and helping the Registrar.To conclude only two categories of non academic will benefit with this reform and for others business as usual.WE should go ahead with this plan for the benefit of the UoM and the Country.As per UoM Act 1971, the PM nominates members of council. Till now he has not commented on the departure of the Vice Chancellor.We all know our Hon Prime Minister and are sure that he will take the right decision by ensuring that the reform should go on and any person against this should LEV PAKE ALLER.... |

| What is the PRO doing on the campus? Just forwarding invitations and "ramasse contribution volontaire". Un PRO est un poste cle dans une organisation mais dommage a l'Univ. c pas le cas.we strongly believe that this post should be abolished with immediate effect as it is a waste of public funds. The PRO is supported by an AO, a CS, a Clerk and 1 Office Attendant, Mais c du gaspilage! 'maja karo' should come to an end if we want the univ. to prosper. |

| shame. as a former student, conrad morgan a fait beaucoup ou je devrais plutot dire a voulu apporter des changements mais biensur pour ne pas changer il y a toujours des "vo rien" ki veulent tout controller. je suis contente de ne plus faire parti de uom et j'ai meme honte de dire ke j'ai etudie a uom. I simply hope that this will change for the future generation (meme si c peine perdu) |

| After reading the majority of comments here, I do believe most posters have no idea what they themselves are talking about! This university was set up for the sake of having a tertiary institution of our own in our own island, nothing more. There was never an intention in making of it a 'world beater' if it receives paltry financial endowment and bears a poor reputation in the eyes of past, present and future students. That said, whoever takes charge of the university won't make matters budge in the right direction. |

| I can't help recalling some memorable accomplishments, I’m sure there are more, by highlighting Air Mauritius' Financial Controller (African guy), correct me if I'm wrong, whose BMW was sabotaged, Cunningham’s “lashing” episode and now Konrad Morgan’s resignation is our latest sensational and unsurpassed achievement which is a blockbuster for sure. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW THINGS CAN CHANGE IN THIS DOOMED COUNTRY??? |

| Reflexion2012 |
|
| Prof. Jugessur should step down as Chairman of Council on the spot. He argues that all 700 non academic staff are against the reform.So stupid from his part. There is only the Assistant Registrar involved in the reform process that is ONLY five persons. Wat is the problem? With the present system zey wll have to wait for the departure of the registrar to get a promotion. So ...Prof. Jugessur U better accept that u r trying your level best to cater for only one person,the Registrar and not the interest of UoM. LEAVE UOM NOW>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> |

| My dear Konrad,
If you don't pack up and go you will be cornered sooner or later. People of your calibre have a wider scope outside. Why are you losing your time overhere. This country is infected with political interference. I advise you to close your eyes , get a taxi to the airport and jump as fast as you can into the first flight. Don't lose your precious career over here. In this country the worst you are the better. Tomorrow you may be asked to clean the shoes of the Minister. |

| it is a great loss for the Univ. to lose someone very competent and "un homme de principe" in the calibre of Mr Morgan. Il voulait tout simplement apporter un sang nouveau a l' universite mais malheureusement ca a pris une vilaine tournure. What do politicians have to interfere in academic matters. It would have been better for the benefit of the univ.that the Chancellor and the pro submit their letter of resignation' What a shame for the university and for the country! et nous qui clamons haut et fort que nous sommes un peuple admirable.

| It is a known fact that the standard of education in Mauritius is very well respected worldwide. This type of manifestation can only damage this reputation which has taken years of hard work to build. During his interview, if you read between the lines, the VC has been very critical in the way his recommendationns for betterment of the UoM have been side line. The VC must be admired for his determination and his courage to resign so to make us aware what actually goes on behind closed doors at the UoM. . As fore the minister, why should he care, he is here today and hopefully gone tomorrow. The UoM students deserve better - wishful thinking!!! - NOT. |

| If the PM really loves his country - as he claims he does - and that he works for the benefit of one and all - and not just for little groups who want to empower thamselves -, THEN HE SHOULD IMPLEMENT MORGAN'S PLAN. |
|
| UoM staff |
|
| For good governance and respect to VC, the University should implement the original reform plan of Prof Morgan which he submitted to Council in December 2010. The plan was prepared without any intervention |

| Why don't the students and the faculty go on strike if the political interference has reached such high levels? At least, Pr. Morgan left with dignity in the face of the increasing follie of some political parasites working at the university. Academics are expected to uphold integrity, both in their work and society. Sadly, i suspect that many will moan, but none will take any action to halt the political interference and inevitable decline of the university. This is the Mauritian way. Nous pays, nous fierte. |

| I am in total agreement with "A concerned Citizen" regarding his/her views of the Pro-Chancellor. Suffice it to say that the Pro-Chancellor is a Physisist who "thought" he was an Engineer and successfully lobbied (to his political credit) to get registered as a Professional Engineer in Mauritius. He needed this registration to "prove" that he could head the then School of Industrial Technology (SIT, now Faculty of Engineering) at UoM, but still failed to get the job. On one occasion, he even supported the Head of SIT with his vote to pass a candidate who had failed a paper - failure confirmed by both the Examiner and Moderator. A vote to pass a student? How "spineles" can you be? Anyway, only in Mauritius can such unscrupulous persons "occupy" such high positions. Shame on the system. |

| Au niveau du 'middle managemen' Il est très facile de faire de la figuration à l'Université de Maurice. Auparavant les 'clerks' et 'senior clerks' s'occupaient de tout et faisaient un travail formidable. Maintenant nous avons des 'administrative assistants' et des 'assistant registrars' par dizaines, la plupart des protégés avec des diplômes douteux. Certains 'assistant registrars' ne connaissent pas grand chose aux rouages de l'administration et ils sont incapables de rédiger une lettre dans anglais correct. Oublions le français, sinon c'est la catastrophe. Mais ils ont la formule magique pour marquer leur présence dans la présente administration pourrie. Aussitôt qu'ils doivent prendre une décision quelconque, ils abusent de leurs FNA ou BU ! Ces deux abbréviations signifient tout simplement FOR NECESSARY ACTION ou BRING UP ! Et ils se lavent les mains car c'est un pauvre 'clerk' qui doit tout faire : trouver la solution, rédiger la réponse et la faire parvenir la lettre à un parasite grassement payé. Ce dernier ne fait que signer la lettre pour expédition, sans même vérifier le contenu. Voilà ce que le Professeur Morgan voulait changer avec son plan de restructuration. Mais ce plan allait changer drastiquement les mauvaises habitudes et surtout mettre un frein au gaspillage et à la corruption. Ca n'a pas plu aux jouisseurs, d'où leur colère. Donc il fallait écarter le Professeur Morgan à tout prix. Le 'coup de pouce' de nos princes leur a été providentiel. |

| It is a shame that the VC has been pushed in a corner to such an extent in such a short while he has been at UoM -- and all the time while trying to bring about positive changes to the University. Would Minister Jeetah have us believe that he had to meet up with him every week to talk about "strategic planning" for the University ? The Uni has a chancellor who cannot literally put one foot in front of the other by himself and who has been holding on to this post for so long now and who has been bringing down the reputation of UoM at every graduation ceremony when he is asked to put two words together. Surely, some people should have the decency to let go and live a life of self-respect in their last few days. Then, there is the Pro-Chancellor who has been a poor lecturer himself and is a spineless "leader". He is only too happy to follow instructions he gets from the top. His contribution to academia has been "sukhi pariwaar" and his "family" has indeed benefited in many other ways and continues to benefit from the current Govt with diplomatic posting to highly influential places. What background in diplomacy has the person got ? But yes, people with self-respect, resign and that's what they VC did. The sad reality is that the rotting continues. |

| Les lecturers, les deans, les post-docs, les docteurs, les associat profs, les profs doivent se poser la question s'ils ont de l'avenir dans cette université. Comment le gouvernement en place a su favoriser le middle management qui est constitué des gens de l'administration avec des dilplômes inférieurs aux profs (bien inférieurs dans certains cas), qui n'ont aucun expérience dans l'enseignement supérieur si ce n'est que faire de la paperasse administrative, puissent avoir le dernier mot en ce qu'il s'agit de l'éducation? Les gens du middle management ne sont intéressés que par le pouvoir et par l'argent. Je trouve que l'enseignement supérieur a un avenir très très sombre à Maurice. |
