Appointment of VCs
On 20 April 2008, an advertisement was given in the daily Prothom Alo by the ministry of education, inviting applications from interested candidates for appointment as vice-chancellors of seven public universities in Bangladesh. Similar advertisement was also given in DS of 7t August 2008 for appointment of vice-chancellors for five public universities. This is the first time in the history of higher education (at university level) in Bangladesh that advertisement was given in newspaper for appointment of vice-chancellors.
It was expected that the applicants would be invited by the committee formed for appointment of vice-chancellors to introduce them to the committee and to explain the justification of their candidacy. The committee should always remain above criticism.
