Colleagues
When I first went to the RGS-IBG conference (1991), I remember there
being a 'Not the Annual Dinner' event where like minded colleagues
would have a couple of beers and some food and discuss a few
circulated articles at the same time as the Annual Dinner.
The Contract Research and Teaching Staff Forum of the RGS-IBG would
like to suggest the possibility of ressurecting this event at the
Brighton conference, under a slightly different guise, namely an open
debate/awareness raising session about the 'Contract Culture and its
Implications in Higher Edcuation'.
If there are colleagues (especially research group chairs/committee
members)who are interested in such a venture, we
would very much like to hear from you. It seems there are many of us
who are not aware of the recent changes in legislation and the
tinkering at the edges that is being in this area, and we feel it
would be an opportune for us to discuss ideas and future directions
with a critical audience.
Please contact me (details below), if you are interested.
Best wishes
