 Central Europe Review - Czech Universities
Ten years later, Czech universities are less sure that moral education lies outside their field of responsibility; the need to pay attention to the welfare of students is becoming clearer.
This has caused many parents and many university staff (university staff are often parents of students!) to question "academic freedom" and to reconsider the role of the university in the moral welfare of students.
The government, and society in general, will want the universities to demonstrate more clearly and more measurably that they care for the well-being and success of their students, and that they are giving good value for the funding that they receive.

 U.S. Nuclear Security Agency Converts Czech Reactor - US Department of State
This specific research reactor is a low-power, university training reactor, NNSA said.  It had been operating with an HEU fuel core.  The HEU (14 kilograms, or 31 pounds) was removed in secret on September 27, and sent to Russia as part of the GTRI's Russian Research Reactor Fuel Return program. 
The HEU was airlifted under guard from an airport near Prague, Czech Republic, to a secure facility in Dimitrovgrad, Russia.  There the material will be down-blended to LEU.  This was the eighth shipment of HEU from various countries (a total of 122 kilograms), according to the NNSA.
After removal of the HEU fuel, the reactor was then converted to use LEU.  In October, replacement LEU fuel was delivered to the Czech Technical University, and the research reactor was restarted with it.
