Dear Colleagues,



Below is the link to the original interview of 
Vyacheslav Bryukhovetskyy in Ukrainian and the 
attached translation in English, related to the 
status of university autonomy and academic freedom 
and other topics.  Please note that an alternative 
draft law "On Higher Education" has been submitted 
to Ukraine's Parliament by Yuriy Miroshnichenko, 
the President's Representative in the Parliament 
(Verkhovna Rada), who is a member of the Party of 
Regions.  That draft was submitted on December 17.

Vyacheslav Bryukhovetskyy: (on support for the 
alternative draft law "On Higher Education" 
proposed to Parliament)

"Luckily, there are members of the Parliament who 
understand where such a move will lead the 
educational system.  A new draft law “On Higher 
Education” was introduced on December 17 by 
Presidential representative Yuriy Miroshnychenko 
from the Regions Party.  This is the most 
progressive draft introduced since Ukraine’s 
independence.

 I can’t say it completely satisfies us, but it 
truly is a bill aimed at developing Ukraine’s 
system of education.  As Tabachnyk’s proposed 
draft law focuses on “obedience”, this draft law 
focuses on standards of quality and accountability 
in Ukraine’s education.

We support this bill.  I am pleasantly surprised 
that the Party of Regions essentially supports us. 
I’m optimistic that this bill will form the basis 
of the future law on education."



More information on Yuriy Miroshnychenko and the 
alternative proposed draft law "On Higher 
Education".

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

I announce with great sadness the passing away 
today of the literary critic and dissident 
Mykhailyna Kotsiubyns'ka.

A brief note about her death has appeared on the 
site of Radio Liberty:

<< Померла відома літературознавець Михайлина 
Коцюбинська

For a brief overview of her biography, please see 
the site of "Vydelka"

Ms Kotsiubyns'ka passing is a great loss to 
literary scholarship and the community of human 
rights' defenders.
She was an outstanding individual.

Eternal memory to her!
