Principal of the Cave Hill Campus of the University of the West Indies, Sir Hilary Beckles, will give an account of campus developments under his stewardship during the past year when he delivers his report to the institution’s annual business meeting today.
His delivery is likely to note how closely the campus’ accomplishments matched the University of the West Indies’ multi-campus overall five-year development plan, 2007-11, and also give an insight into that for the next five years.
Sir Hilary’s presentation comes as the campus prepares to mark its 50th anniversary next year.
Last Friday Prime Minister Freundel Stuart toured the campus on an official invitation from Sir Hilary and also met with its senior management, including the registrar, bursar, deans, and guild president.
Describing the visit as “very exciting and engaging”, Sir Hilary added that it was an opportunity “to bring the Prime Minister fully into the Cave Hill picture, and to seek his input and counsel on the three mentioned matters before the campus. (SP/PR)
