The Aftermath

Author(s):

In the aftermath of the Dow sit-in, the university became bogged down in bureaucracy as it attempted to adapt its disciplinary procedures to the acts committed: students worked first to ensure their complicity and then to avoid punishment; law faculty leaped to their defense; the public, legislature, and newspapers rushed to share their opinions. Five graduate students and fifteen undergrads were brought before two separate committees, which announced contradictory light sentences for the grads and expulsion for the undergrads. Hundreds rallied on the quad to protest the expulsions, which were rescinded within days, with equal light punishment meted for all. Forty-seven others eventually received the same.

In this article, I reflect on my experience as an active rank and file member of CUPE 3903, the union representing contract faculty and graduate students at York University in Toronto, Ontario, during the 2018 York University Strike, where I volunteered as a front-line communicator, or “car talker”. Drawing on these experiences, I reflect on the ways in which picketers generally try to (un)manage the emotions of drivers passing through the picket line. My analysis is focused on a particular venue - the Shoreham picket line located at the southwest entrance of the university, and centers around my personal interactions with the drivers crossing the picket line during the morning hours from March 2018 to May 2018. My analysis aims to open up space to discuss the largely overlooked role that the emotions of the public play in shaping the picket line experience. In particular, I provide a multi-directional analysis of the encounters that occurred between the picketers and the general public at the Shoreham picket line during the 2018 strike, highlighting the multiplicity of variables, such as the environment, the pre-existing beliefs of the participants, and expressions of collective anger, which informed these encounters. In doing this, I illuminate the complexity of the intertwined relationship between emotional and cognitive framing, thereby providing a more comprehensive model for understanding the role that emotions play in social movement organizing.

The public University of the Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski in Warsaw (UKSW) came into being from the transformation in 1999 from the ecclesiastical college – Academy of the Catholic Theology. The statutes UKSW bases the activity of the University on Polish right, also that within the framework of UKSW are the place for ecclesiastical faculties: The Faculty of the Theology, The Canon Law Faculty and the Faculty of the Christian Philosophy. The originality of these faculties gets out of their directing on the Christian Revelation and the realization of the evangelization mission on the scientific ground. A second factor distinctive from other faculties UKSW is the dependence from the canonical right, at the simultaneous observance of the Polish law. The article showed that three church faculties UKSW kept their own canonical status. This legal status confirm records of the law the Right about the higher educational system (2005 year). Ecclesiastical faculties UKSW in Warsaw compose the perfect foot-bridge for the dialogue between the faith and the mind. Across their own investigative space fill up research of other sciences with which determine universitas. These departments are an important part of the University.

In order to complete studies at the University of Law Faculty of August 17, 1945 Samarinda, one of the tasks that must be completed is scientific writing, this imiah writing is entitled: "Juridical Review of the Fall of the Right to Prosecute under the Criminal Law Act". This scientific research method uses normative juridies.The violation of the right to sue is regulated in Chapter VII of the Criminal Code, while the violation of the right to sue is regulated in the Criminal Code, namely:The principle of "Ne bis in idem" (Article 76 of the Criminal Code).Death of the perpetrator (Article 77 of the Criminal Code).Expiry (Article 78 of the Criminal Code).Settlement of cases outside court trials (Article 82 of the Criminal Code).Amnesty and Abolition from the President (Article 14 of the 1945 Constitution).There are no complaints on complaints offenses.This provision contained in the Criminal Code is to provide legal certainty for the community specifically the perpetrators of criminal acts. Provisions for the cancellation of the right to sue are the duties and functions of the Attorney General's Office of the Republic of Indonesia based on Law 16 of 2004.The fall of the right to sue is caused by: 1) natural causes, 2) causes of human actions, and 3) legal causes It is hoped that the rules on the cancellation of the right to sue can be further emphasized in the new draft Law on Criminal Law (RKUHP) to provide legal certainty to the public. Likewise, cases of minor criminal acts (tipiring) should be resolved outside the court to avoid the accumulation of cases in court and the excess capacity of State Detention Centers or Penitentiaries.

From 26 December 1972 to 24 January 1973, I was a member of a group from the University of Hawaii visiting various institutions of higher learning in China. The group consisted of five Chinese-speaking faculty members and five graduate students with varied interests and specializations. Since my own particular subject is the training and political education of cadres, I requested permission to visit a May Seventh cadre school. This report examines the May Seventh Cadre School for Eastern Peking and is based upon information gathered on a visit there in January 1973. Officials of the school told us that from its establishment, on 7 November 1968, to January 1973, approximately 3,300 cadres from eastern Peking graduated from the school. The extent of this particular school's involvement in training cadres for eastern Peking is best illustrated by the public disclosure that over half of the cadres in eastern Peking have attended it.

I must begin with a few words about my predecessor in the Rouse Ball chair, Sir David Williams. David Williams has had a career of outstanding service to legal studies, to universities, in particular Cambridge, and to the wider public. After completing his studies, he became one of the formidable group at the University of Nottingham's Law Faculty. He went on to Oxford—he has told me that he went there as a missionary—and during his time there produced his pathbreaking books on official secrets and public order, Not in the Public Interest and Keeping the Peace. He was, it must be said, not the only Cambridge public lawyer-missionary in Oxford. Sir William Wade was also there. By 1967 it appears that two missionaries were no longer required, and David Williams returned to Cambridge. In 1982 he succeeded Wade—by now also back in Cambridge—as Rouse Ball Professor. He has been an important presence in the world of administrative law and his contribution to environmental issues has been enormous. We are delighted that now he has laid down the burdens of office as Vice-Chancellor he has returned to the Faculty— albeit to a different chair.

Examinations and lectures were run both in the field of the public law, private, as well as of support sciences of the law. The article is devoted to the learning of the public law and his academic teachers. Lectures directed for getting to know such objects as the constitutional, church, criminal, tax and administrative law were run on different ranks of studies (from II till the IV year). Syllabus were made up on the basis of provisions of the law about the academic education.In the period of the interwar period discussions took place about their shape. In them professor Eugeniusz Waśkowski, who proposed the legal specialization in senior years supplemented took the active participation for historical researches concerning the institution from the scope of individual branches of the law.In frames this way constructed among others constitutionalists gave a lecture. Among them professor Wacław Komarnicki participated in scientific trips to West-European cities – particularly to Paris. He also contributed to the development of the learning of the public law with one’s work professors Alfons Parczewski and Bolesław Wilanowski who dealt with the canon law and laid them out together with marital rights. Analysing the contribution of Vilnius lawyers to academic achievements of the Polish learning of the criminal law, it is impossible to forget about examinations conducted by professors Bronisław Wróblewski and Stefan Glaser. B. Wróblewski cooperated closely with a more late professor of the Wrocław University Witold Świda. Next, S. Glaser joined in the discussion about legal-medical aspects of abortion.Among this circle it is needed to mention about professor Mieczysław Gutowski – the editor of the periodical Works of the Seminar from the Finances and the Revenue law and the Statistics. There is also described an academic activity of professor Jerzy Panejko, who was concentrated in examinations on the subject matter of the local government and professional council.The Vilnius legal thought survived throughout the period of the II World War. W. Świda, B. Wilanowski and A. Mycielski were continued lectures in the country. Especially W Komarnicki, W. Sukiennicki, or also S. Glaser began the teaching and scientific work at foreign colleges. They cultivated the Vilnius legal thought given rise to and looked after in the interwar period.

This report focusses on the planning and realization of an interdisciplinary local area network (LAN) for medical research at the University of Heidelberg. After a detailed requirements analysis, several networks were evaluated by means of a test installation, and a cost-performance analysis was carried out. At present, the LAN connects 45 (IBM-compatible) PCs, several heterogeneous mainframes (IBM, DEC and Siemens) and provides access to the public X.25 network and to wide-area networks for research (EARN, BITNET). The network supports application software that is frequently needed in medical research (word processing, statistics, graphics, literature databases and services, etc.). Compliance with existing “official” (e.g., IEEE 802.3) and “de facto” standards (e.g., PostScript) was considered to be extremely important for the selection of both hardware and software. Customized programs were developed to improve access control, user interface and on-line help. Wide acceptance of the LAN was achieved through extensive education and maintenance facilities, e.g., teaching courses, customized manuals and a hotline service. Since requirements of clinical routine differ substantially from medical research needs, two separate networks (with a gateway in between) are proposed as a solution to optimally satisfy the users’ demands.

In order to codify the political and partisan activity in Iraq, after a difficult labor, the Political Parties Law No. (36) for the year 2015 started and this is positive because it is not normal for the political parties and forces in Iraq to continue without a legal framework. Article (24) / paragraph (5) of the law requires that the party and its members commit themselves to the following: (To preserve the neutrality of the public office and public institutions and not to exploit it for the gains of a party or political organization). This is considered because it is illegal to exploit State institutions for partisan purposes . It is a moral duty before the politician not to exploit the political parties or some of its members or those who try to speak on their behalf directly or indirectly to achieve partisan gains. Or personality against other personalities and parties at the expense of the university entity.
