Guide To Incorporation Of Not For Profit Organisations In Nigeria, Taiwo Adebola Odumosu Mr.
Taiwo Adebola Odumosu Mr.
The incorporation of non-profit bodies in Nigeria is governed by the Companies and Allied Matters Act, 2004 (‘the Act’). The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) is vested with responsibility for non-profit organisations. The CAC has branches in most State capitals of the Federation and its headquarters is based in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory. Before applying to the CAC for incorporation of a non-profit body, one must check that the name of the new entity is not already in use. This can be done by purchasing an Availability Form, which costs very little. In Nigeria only legal practitioners, and to some …

Traditional And Charter School Funding In Arkansas, 2012 University of Arkansas, Fayetteville
Traditional And Charter School Funding In Arkansas, Reed Greenwood, Gary W. Ritter
Policy Briefs
Charter schools, once considered an anomaly, are becoming increasingly common in the U.S. There are concerns among some education stakeholders that charter schools pull funding away from traditional public schools, since a large portion of education funds follow the student to the charter school. Conversely, some argue that there are funding inequities that favor public schools. These individuals claim that since charter schools are public schools, the funds allocated to them should be the equivalent of that received by the traditional public schools. This brief examines funding of traditional and charter schools in Arkansas

A total of 183 students were given a survey in their education classes with 27 statements of famous misconceptions about student rights and tort liability. Students were asked to determine if these statements were true or false and how confident they were in their answer. …

Judicial Influence On Academic Decision-Making: A Study Of Tenure Denial Litigation Cases In Which Higher Education Institutions Did Not Wholly Prevail, Julee Tate Flood
Doctoral Dissertations
This study examined judicial influence on academic decision-making by identifying factors in the tenure process that have induced courts to rule against higher education institutions in litigation stemming from tenure denials. Many interdisciplinary legal and educational studies have been conducted pertaining to tenure related litigation using qualitative, quantitative, and legal research methodologies. Empirical studies have been directed at varied issues, such as the peer review process; specific claims, such as discrimination; types of institutions; or time periods. Much of this scholarship has noted the importance of judicial deference to decisions made in academia. Unique to this study was the application …

The constitutionality of affirmative action in America's public higher education institutions ("HEIs") gained prominence in the late 1970s with the Supreme Court's decision in Regents of the University of California v. Bakke. The Bakke decision was less than clear, but it provided the framework in which HEls formulated their admission policies regarding the use of race. Nevertheless, the law regarding affirmative action remained unsettled, and the circuits remained split.

We are hearing and talking about lethal incidents of juvenile violence among all social classes and races, suburban and inner city youth alike. This paper is a discussion of various issues surrounding school violence and its implications for our children. Our focus is to: (1) determine the root causes of extreme …

Os Perigosos Sábios Do Sião Ii, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha
Paulo Ferreira da Cunha
Os momentos de aguda crise económica e social, como o que se vive e parece que se irá agravar, são propensos a populismos e demagogia de potenciais candidatos a ditadores, que aproveitam a falta de educação de que a democracia é responsável para manipularem as massas e as fazerem crer em bodes expiatórios. Ingenuamente, os preconceitos são reproduzidos em cadeia. Normalmente, há uma lista comum de "suspeitos do costume". Chega-se ao cúmulo de os que vêm a seguir na lista serem enganados ao ponto de culparem os que estão antes. A defesa da Democracia passa também pelo esclarecimento e pela …

Using John Dewey’s suspended conclusion concept for effective thinking as an organizing theme, this Article presents one basic set of lessons for thinking through issues that arise regarding the approach to a law school exam. This means that the lessons contained here help exercise thought while taking the exam — …
