Hallo Almal,
Hierdie boodskap het op ons universiteit se netwerk verskyn. Miskien
is daar poslyslede by universiteite of technikons wat 'n bydrae wil
lewer. Stuur asseblief bydraes direk aan Anthea Johnson
(john...@pro.und.ac.za), en nie aan my nie.

> MAIL & GUARDIAN SUPPLEMENT ON RESEARCH
>
> Philippa Garson, Education Editor of the Mail & Guardian, is compiling a
> supplement on Research, which will appear around 7 March. She is
> looking for unusual, exciting, off-beat research, or relevant research.
>
> If you have a research project which would fit in or can offer information
> or views on the issues listed below, can you e-mail
> (john...@pro.und.ac.za) or fax (ext. 3265) to me before 20 February,
> so that I can collate material for her.
>
> Some of the issues she hopes to tackle are :
>
> # Is pure research justified in our country, given the educational
> backlog?
> # How does our research fare in terms of international standards?
> # Are there controversies around funding for research purposes?
> # Is research the domain of the historically privileged formerly white
> universities or are the historically black universities and technikons
> beginning to carve a niche for themselves in this regard?
> # What research is being done that will improve the lives of South
> Africans?
> # What research is being done that could catapult our universities into
> the international spotlight?
> # What seemingly bizarre, even funny, research is being conducted?
> # Are research assistants performing a thankless task in doing all the
> work while the academics in charge get all the accolades?
>
> If you could keep responses brief and give me a contact name and
> number I would be very grateful.
>
> Thank you for your help.
