Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 is one of the newest signatories of the Magna Charta Universitatum, joining a collective of close to 900 universities around the globe. Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane signed the document at a ceremony closing the Magna Charta Observatory카지노 게임 컬렉션s annual conference, held for the first time in North America at McMaster 카지노게임사이트 in Hamilton on Oct. 17.

The Magna Charta Universitatum celebrates the deepest values of university traditions such as academic freedom, autonomy, integration of teaching and research, social responsibility, among others, and unites universities through these common bonds.

카지노 게임 컬렉션I am especially proud to have been able to sign the Magna Charta on behalf of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and feel privileged to have done so in the company of distinguished colleagues from around the world,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Principal Deane.

The Magna Charta was first created and signed in 1988 at the 카지노게임사이트 of Bologna and originally focused largely on issues facing European universities. Since then, universities around the world have signed the document. Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s is one of only 10 Canadian institutions to sign and in doing so, agrees to uphold the traditions and principles set out in the document and joins a global collective working to ensure the strength of the university model.

In 1998, the Magna Charta Observatory (MCO) was formed to oversee the health of universities and ensure the principles of the original document were being upheld. The MCO holds an annual conference focused on issues facing universities globally. The theme of this year카지노 게임 컬렉션s conference was 카지노 게임 컬렉션Universities: Their Freedoms and Responsibilities: The Challenge of the Future.카지노 게임 컬렉션

At the signing ceremony, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s was one of 16 universities to sign and the only one from Canada. Other universities at this year카지노 게임 컬렉션s ceremony were from France, Belgium, Albania, Austria, Hungary, Georgia, Kazakhstan, United Kingdom, Germany, Ukraine, and Australia. Following the signing Deane delivered the keynote address stressing the importance of solidarity amongst universities in advancing knowledge and research, and the responsibilities they have to the future of society and our planet.

카지노 게임 컬렉션Signing the Magna Charta may seem like a small thing, but it really matters,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Principal Deane. 카지노 게임 컬렉션The conference sessions were fantastic. I particularly enjoyed Sigal Ben-Porath카지노 게임 컬렉션s keynote on free speech and feel her book, 카지노 게임 컬렉션,카지노 게임 컬렉션 is the best written on the subject.카지노 게임 컬렉션

The university카지노 게임 컬렉션s Rector, Alex Da Silva, and Chancellor Jim Leech, attended the conference with the principal.

Principal Deane is also a member of the governing council of the MCO and is on a working committee that stayed after the conference to rewrite the Magna Charta document to reflect the more global composition of its membership and the changing nature of universities including their relationships with communities and engagement in social justice issues. The next iteration of the Magna Charta will be signed by all members at the 2020 conference at the 카지노게임사이트 of Bologna in September.
