Robin Williams confused about Dr. Misir’s responsibilities

Oct 04, 2009 Letters

Dear Editor,
I refer to Mr. Robin William’s letter in the SN on October 2, 2009 captioned, “Fluctuating principles.”
First and foremost, as the Pro-Chancellor of the University of Guyana, Dr. Prem Misir has the right to inform and correct the media of their premature conclusions about the Evan Persaud matter.
It is within the Pro-Chancellor’s jurisdiction to apprise the public and the media that Evan Persaud, or whoever in question is entitled to due process, as it relates to Statute 25 of the Acts and Statutes Governing the University of Guyana, given the media’s wild excitement and inconclusive conclusions.
It is important that the premature state of the Evan Persaud matter be understood by the public and the media, and that a conclusion can only be drawn after members of the Special Committee in accordance with Statute 25, rule on the matter; and these members will comprise of five persons who are not members of the University’s Council.
Mr. Williams should not confuse himself, and associate the Pro-Chancellor of the University of Guyana, with other matters which are not within his jurisdiction, and should instead steer his questions to the relevant authorities.
Marissa Lowden
