  • Understanding Cambridge University and Its Grading Scheme
    Understanding Cambridge University and its Grading Scheme Samantha Farrell-Schmitt earned her undergraduate degree in 1996 from University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom (UK). For the purposes of placing this in the context of an American review, we wish to emphasize the reputation of her university and explain the grading system used in the UK and how it roughly translates to US scores. The University of Cambridge (www.cam.ac.uk) is one of the preeminent universities in the world, founded over 800 years ago, and containing 31 constituent colleges and more than 100 academic departments. It has produced 91 Nobel Laureates, more than any other university in the world. The University of Cambridge is ranked by US News and World Report as the 6th best university in the world, ranked alongside Harvard, MIT, UC Berkeley, Stanford, and the University of Oxford (see http://www.usnews.com/education/best-global- universities/rankings). Times Higher Education ranks the university as 5th in the world, the Center for World University Rankings places it as 4th, ahead of both Princeton and Yale. Amongst the 31 colleges of the university is Homerton College, where Samantha studied. Homerton is generally regarded as the leading center for the study of Primary and Secondary Education in the UK. As a UK university, Cambridge follows a grading system different to most US colleges and universities. Thus, the scores and percentages shown on Samantha’s university transcript must be read with an understanding of this distinction. Samantha’s degree shows that she has graduated with honors (honours, to use the British spelling).

  • Vol 57 No.3 DEC 2009 FILE.Indd
    New Horizons in Education, Vol.57, No.3 (Special Issue), December 2009 Where we are now: a review of service-learning among SLAN Colleges and universities in Asia Florence E. McCarthy International Christian University Abstract Background: Service-learning in the Service-Learning Asian Network (SLAN), is organized as part of the academic structure of member institutions, and includes both international and community (domestic) service-learning. SLAN began with the exchange of students between SLAN institutions and has progressed to multicultural service-learning exchange programs and collaborative research. Aim: The intent of this article is to illustrate the development of Asian service-learning by reviewing the progress that has been made in six SLAN service-learning programs, illustrating differences and shared characteristics. These include: consistency in programs, multicultural exchange, and collaborative research. Lessons learned and main outcomes of the research are presented. Argument: Among lessons learned are the importance of multicultural programs to promote greater acceptance and understanding of socio-cultural differences by students; the importance of student preparation before service, and community agency orientation to enhance the reciprocities of exchange between students, agency staff, and local people. Student outcomes include personal growth, enhanced social skills, intercultural learning, and increased academic abilities. Conclusions: Progress has been made in institutionalizing service-learning among SLAN institutions.

  • Reindorf Report, and an Update in Light of the Judgment of the Employment Appeal Tribunal in the Case of Forstater V CGD
    Leadership Starts with the Law Briefing for universities on The Reindorf Review JUNE 2021 Foreword In May 2021 the University of Essex published a review by barrister Akua Reindorf concerning the “deplatforming” of two academics because of their “gender critical” views. It captures a glimpse of statutory compliance and academic freedom under fire: university policies captured by internal and external lobby groups, and cultures of fear where academics and students can be hostages to groundless charges of transphobia. The Essex report exposes and challenges a widespread phenomenon: accusations of transphobia deployed first to curtail academic freedom, and then to prevent people talking about the curtailment of academic freedom. It should be a wake-up call for university leadership. Sex Matters is a UK based not-for-profit organisation. We campaign, advocate and produce resources to promote clarity about sex in public policy, law and language. This briefing contains highlights from the Reindorf report, and an update in light of the judgment of the Employment Appeal Tribunal in the case of Forstater v CGD. It is written in particular to support university leadership in undertaking robust reviews of their policies, and in withstanding further pressure to discriminate against, harass and victimise gender-critical scholars. Given the circumstances of the Essex report, this briefing considers issues of academic freedom. However, both the Essex report and the case of Forstater v CGD have significant implications for universities when carrying out all their responsibilities as employers, education providers, and service providers. Although aimed at universities, it is also relevant to student unions and organisations that provide services on a university’s behalf.
