Today 24/10 the Guardian carries the comments made by the Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan as he spoke at Capital Hill of the way in which his trust in the responsibility of the banks 'had been misplaced'... and that he is now in a state of 'shocked disbelief' at what has happened.. the banks apparently could not be trusted...
It seems from my experiences that our universities cannot be trusted either...
... cannot be trusted to deal effectively with issues of alleged workplace bullying...
... education is a moral enterprise and therefore society looks to its academics to ACT morally -
actions speak louder than words
unis are generally good on the words... it's what they do...
