18 Feb : The Vice-Chancellor of the Panjab University addressed the meeting of all the Chairpersons of the departments in the Senate Hall today and the following decisions were taken:
In order to bring out transparency in all the appointments; teaching as well as non-teaching, all the Chairpersons were asked to devise a proforma for allocating marks or indicate the criteria for selection in consultation with their respective faculty members, which should be put on the University Website as also that it should be available to all the candidates even before the selection is held. This will help in ending all kinds of arbitrariness in the selection process.
Maximum emphasis should be laid to bring transparency and the University to be student friendly. The Vice-Chancellor appealed to all the Chairpersons to ensure that the results of students are declared at the earliest and sought their proactive cooperation in this regard.
The Vice-Chancellor also asked all the Chairpersons to discuss with their respective faculty members regarding introduction of open credit system in the University.
