EDITORIAL - New front in UWI debate
Jan 29, 2013
KINGSTON, Jamaica - We are grateful to Professor Hubert Devonish for his forthright, clear and simple enunciation of this basic fact.
"The University of the West Indies (UWI), whatever the high-minded motives behind its establishment, is now a business," he wrote in this newspaper on Sunday.
Professor Devonish is a linguist at the UWI's Mona, Jamaica, campus. He made the observation as part of an argument for the Jamaican Government's continued, and perhaps expanded, investment in this enterprise, especially at Mona, which is owned by Caribbean governments. There is also the motive that the university professors want more pay.
