CU selection boards formed

The selection committees were formed for 29 departments and two institutes at a meeting that lasted for eight hours.

The vice-chancellor will be the chairman of all committees. One member will be drawn from department heads holding the post of associate professor and above. The other two will be designated as external and internal members.

Pro-VC Prof. M Shamsuddin declined to make any comment on the selection boards formed by the syndicate whose tenure has already expired.

Meanwhile, the Chittagong University Teachers' Association (Cuta) began a two-day work abstention programme yesterday to protest the syndicate's action.

It demanded immediate election to the syndicate.

However, pro-Jamaat teachers who rejected the work abstention attended few classes in some departments of science and commerce faculties.
