The conversation around rebuilding the partnership between America and its colleges and universities will be different each time it is undertaken. What is important is to get all with a vested interest around the table for a fact-based conversation. This includes students, faculty, administrators and policy makers including politicians. It is particularly important to involve a true cross-section of the public including those that feel universities have traditionally looked down on them, In general, universities need to do more to make the public welcome in order to dispel the elitist ethic that is often projected by institutions of higher education

Private Colleges And Universities

<p>Economic policies encouraging private ownership (liberalisation, privatisation and marketisation) have allowed Private Higher Education Institutions (PrHEIs) to proliferate in most parts of the world, particularly since the 1990s. The number of private colleges and universities continues to grow in most countries at a remarkable rate, partly reflecting the demand for greater choice and more flexibility, which PrHEIs are able to offer. In some countries, PrHEIs even outnumber public higher education institutions (PuHEIs) or are at least expected to do so within the next decade. This is particularly the case in emerging and developing countries. The worldwide expansion of private higher education can be illustrated by the fact that one in three students globally is now enrolled in PrHEIs, and there are very few places in the world where public monopolies continue to prevent the emergence of alternative providers from the private sector. In the UK, the Government recognises that private, for-profit higher education institutions, the majority of which award degrees in conjunction with state universities, typically function more efficiently and work harder to improve the student experience. Their appeal among non-traditional students dovetails perfectly with Government rhetoric to make higher education more accessible and widen participation. A legal framework has been created that makes it easier for challenger institutions to enter the market and compete with the public higher education sector. A more streamlined, student-focused approach to the regulation of higher education in the UK is also designed to stimulate further growth and competition in the HE sector, ensuring that private colleges and universities remain a viable alternative to the public sector. </p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0886/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

El trabajo de investigación que se reporta busca hacer observables los posibles cambios en las trayectorias y perfiles del personal académico que podían atribuirse a la aparición e implementación, en la mayor parte de las Instituciones de Educación Superior públicas del país, de programas que tenían como objetivo el mejoramiento de los perfiles formativos, de producción e inserción internacional de los académicos, y que emplearon diferentes mecanismos de evaluación, diferenciación de ingresos y apoyos a la continuación de su formación. A través de definir una periodización que reflejara la aparición y modificaciones de dichas medidas, la propuesta de una tipología de las instituciones de educación superior y la adopción de una forma de organizar la diversidad disciplinaria, se intentaron controlar analíticamente los efectos paralelos que estos aspectos pudieran tener en la variación de condiciones de trabajo y socialización de los académicos. Con esta forma de organizar la diversidad se analizaron la evolución formativa, la combinación de actividades, el uso del tiempo, las opiniones y los resultados reportados por los académicos del país en la encuesta aplicada en 2001. Finalmente, en el trabajo que se presenta se subrayan algunos de los logros, tensiones y riesgos que parecen derivarse de las lógicas coexistentes en los mecanismos impulsados, especialmente en los ámbitos del compromiso institucional y la renovación de la planta académica actual.AbstractThe work of investigation that is reported looks for making observable the possible changes in the trajectories and profiles of the academic personal that could be attributed to the appearance and implementation, in most of the public Institutions of Higher Education of the country, of programs which  had like objective the improvement of the formative profiles, of production and international insertion of the academics, and that used different mechanisms from evaluation, differentiation of income and supports to the continuation of their formation. Through defining a periodization that reflected the appearance and modifications of these measures, the proposal of a typology of the institutions of higher education and the adoption of a form to organize the disciplinary diversity, were tried analytically to control the parallel effects that these aspects could have in the variation of conditions of work and socialization of the academics. With this form to organize the diversity were analyzed the formative evolution, the combination of activities, the use of the time, the opinions and the results reported by the academics of the country in the survey applied in 2001. Finally, this work emphasizes some of the profits, tensions and risks that seem to derive themselves from the coexisting logics in the impelled mechanisms, especially in the scopes of the institutional commitment and the renovation of the present academic plant.

The Right

Problem setting. Leasing out property that is involved in educational, academic, training and production, scientific activities by the public institutions of higher education often leads to violation of the rights of other participants in educational activities. They are sure to be a result of violating the limits, established by the current legislation, of exercising the rights to leasing out property by the public institutions of higher educational. Analysis of recent researches and publications. The issues of state property lease have been studied by many scholars. Basic research in this area has been conducted by I. Spasibo-Fatieieva, O. Lipetsker, Ye.Kazarenko, V. Steshenko, M. Pronina, S. Puhinsky, T. Potapenkova, Yu.Basin, D. levenson, N. Khashchivska, N. Milovska and other scientists. Target of research. The aim of the paper is a comprehensive study and analysis of the limits of exercising the rights by the public institutions of higher education to leasing out their own property. To achieve this goal the following tasks should be solved: 1) to define the limits of exercising the rights by the public institutions of higher education to leasing out their own property; 2) to determine the legal consequences of concluding lease agreements by the public higher educational institutions in violation of current legislation. Article’s main body. The article conducts a general study and analysis of the right of the public institutions of higher education to lease property. The author emphasizes that public higher educational institutions have the right to lease out only real estate and other individually identified property. The legal consequences of concluding lease agreements by public higher educational institutions in violation of the current legislation have been studied. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Summarizing the results of the study we can formulate the following conclusions. The public institutions of higher education have the right to lease out real estate and other individually determined property in the manner prescribed by law and subject to statutory restrictions (without the right of redemption and sublease, when it does not worsen the social and living conditions of persons studying or working in the educational institution). While leasing the property, the public higher educational institution realizes primarily their own property interests, at the same time, indirectly realizing the property interests of the state. If the lease agreement of real estate and other individually determined property of higher educational institutions is recognized as invalid, it may be recognized as invalid only for the future.
