	Martin Carnoy - Inaugural lecture of the UOC 2004-2005
		Administrative analysts at universities are much more likely than at lower levels of schooling to assess university performance, the effectiveness of faculty in terms of numbers of students taught, years to degree, and student satisfaction.
		Yet, it is also important to note that despite characteristically greater ICT skills of university personnel and the greater degree of data analysis for administrative purposes, the core of higher education and particularly elite higher education remains solidly rooted in standard work arrangements (traditional teacher-student relationships, teaching methods, and professorial control of curriculum).
		The main "successful" example in traditional universities and the Web is that of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which has put its entire curriculum on-line with free access to anyone wants to use it, much as the LINUX operating system was made available to all, free of charge.

		The eight universities (publics and “old privates”) predating the reform, along with their former regional colleges and branch campuses (now numbering 25), are commonly called “traditional” universities.
		All institutions of higher education in Chile, private and public, charge tuition fees, which represent on average 30% of the revenues of the subsidized universities and 95% of the income of new private institutions.
		Public and “old” private universities carry out almost all research and doctoral training, although “new” privates have made headway in these fields since the late 1990s.

	Program for Research On Private Higher Education
		Challenging conventional wisdom, a study by researchers at the University of Chile and Chile's Central Bank shows there are no significant earning differences between graduates of traditional universities, such as the University of Chile, and those from the leading new private institutions.
		It is not unusual, then, that the group of private universities whose graduates perform closer to their colleagues from older universities is composed of the private universities created earliest after the reforms of the early eighties.
		In this regard, it is very telling that whether the university is private or public comes out in only fourth place in terms of its influence in earnings, after study program field, metropolitan or provincial location, and individual attributes of the graduate.

		If we examine the traditional Chilean legal system in the light of the standards contained in international treaties and in the light of the values and principles inspiring human rights doctrine, we are forced to conclude that even though that system formally enshrines the relevant basic principles, it suffers from significant flaws and shortcomings.
		This Commission first recommends that the Chilean government ratify all international agreements that may be adopted or have been adopted in the area of human rights and to which Chile is not yet a signatory.
		Those Chileans whose human rights were violated for political reasons in recent years did not encounter in the courts of justice the protection and support that their constitutional duties and their status as a branch of government required them to provide.

		But the Americas continues to stress that the university's membership in Sylvan's multinational network gives students the possibility of doing part of their studies at sister institutions in Spain and Mexico.
		Sylvan has left the academic side of the university largely in the hands of the original administration; the main changes Sylvan has introduced are mandatory English lessons and a greater emphasis on the use of computer technology in education.
