Insight is a newsletter that is aimed at initiating debate on a variety of topical issues affecting higher education in South Africa. This inaugural issue of Insight (October 2009) contains six letters from Vice-Chancellors. Among the issues covered are: the importance of policy certainty; the funding framework; infrastructure backlogs; access and participation; meeting the needs of underprepared students; increasing postgraduate enrolments and outputs in the face of an ageing academic population; the vexing challenge of attrition; managing the implementation of the HEQF; differentiation; governance; the developmental role of rural-based universities; consolidation of the mergers; self-regulation, institutional autonomy and academic freedom and internationalization. |
