The performance of students in the English concept is a crucial determinant of scholarship and success in the tertiary level of education. This study aimed at finding out the correlates of MSU English performance in the System Admission and Scholarship Examination (SASE) in MSU Community Colleges. Specifically, it has sought to describe the profile of teachers, secondary students, community colleges, and its correlation with the English performance of students. A descriptive-correlational design has been applied in the study and conducted within the 11 community colleges of the university. The secondary students as respondents were selected based on stratified random sampling and assisted to answer the researcher-made instrument. The frequency and percentage distribution, mean, standard deviation, and the correlational tool has been applied in the analysis of the data. Findings revealed that familys income, parents occupation, and the school facilities have been found to have a significant relationship with the SASE performance in English. Thus, these factors are crucial to consider in the analysis of the future performance of the secondary students to be admitted into the college. It is recommended that parents should assess their roles as active partners of the school in educating their children. They should be encouraged by the school to give priority in their activities to support and get involved in the school activities and in following up their childrens accomplishments. A speech laboratory shall promote various programs aimed at improving the performance of students in English. The English Elective Program as the existing program shall be optimized by all colleges of the university.

Education like others spheres of life of modern society is in the state of dynamic changes. New formats of universities as well as their missions and roles in the social and economic development are actively discussed by professional environment. A number of external and internal factors that determine the depth and scale of transformation have effects on the development of the system of higher education. The system of higher education is under the influence of the system and institutional dynamics, which dictate the need for changes. The activity of universities as centers of education, science and culture is one of the most important bases of social progress. This role becomes especially important in XXI century, which is based on new knowledge and principles of technological development. First of all a university takes new features in the current conditions of globalization. The fundamental task that needs to be solved in order to achieve the goals of a modern University is the change of meanings, goals and content of education by active participation in the internationalization processes of the system of higher education and by introducing reforms in educational process. Of course new economic conditions (global market and information technologies) require modifications. It was stated that the commercialization of University innovations in Azerbaijan is a relatively new direction, since the country is just adopts the path of an innovative economy. In this regard the transformation of a scientific idea to a product or a service faces a number of difficulties. It was investigated the problem of commercialization of the results of scientific activities of higher educational institutions in Azerbaijan.

In 1990 (Fluegeman and Orr) the writers published a short study on known North American cyclocystoids. This enigmatic group is best represented in the United States Devonian by only two specimens, both illustrated in the 1990 report. Previously, the Cortland, New York, specimen initially described by Heaslip (1969) was housed at State University College at Cortland, New York, and the Logansport, Indiana, specimen was housed at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. Both institutions recognize the importance of permanently placing these rare specimens in a proper paleontologic repository with other cyclocystoids. Therefore, these two specimens have been transferred to the curated paleontologic collection at the University of Cincinnati Geological Museum where they can be readily studied by future workers in association with a good assemblage of Ordovician specimens of the Cyclocystoidea.

I have taught courses on political philosophy at four schools — the University of Chicago, Rosary College, Idaho State University, and Northern Illinois University. I have had to adjust the style of my teaching to conform to the distinctive character of each school. But I have found that the most fundamental obstacles to winning the attention of students have been the same.Many students have begun my courses with four unfavorable preconceptions. They believe that political philosophy is too abstract. And for that reason they also believe that it has no application to contemporary political issues. Moreover, many students assume that since the classic texts of political thought are old, the ideas they contain must therefore be obsolete. And finally they think that political philosophy is ultimately subjective because no philosopher can prove his ideas to be absolutely true.
