Expose` 3 -University is not a property of professors- : Most disgraceful book robberies of culprit professors

(Lanka-e-News -09.March.2016, 11.30PM) While expressing my gratitude to Lanka e news for publishing the traits  and qualities of the University lecturers and professors ,might I be permitted to make some more revelations in that connection...

It is a fact that a majority of the University lecturers today go to India and China to secure their M.A. and Ph.D. The theses written by  some of them do not even run into  100 pages. A strange feature   is , some of them who go to India  and spend three years to obtain their Ph.D. and return have no proficiency in English or Hindi.  Those who go to China to obtain their qualifications  , and return to SL too are in the same boat. They do not know Chinese language  or English. It is therefore deducible that these Dons who went to India and China to secure their M.A. and Ph.D. have followed their studies and done the research apparently in Sinhala using sly avenues..

Those lecturers and professors who have secured their M.A. and Ph.D in India and China do not even reveal their research subjects . The main reason for this is , they have submitted to those Universities the research that was done here in Sinhala  by someone else .

Robbing the research done by others this way has become a practice in Universities. There are also reports of lecturers robbing the research done by students.

The hidden truth  pertaining to Professor Mayura Samarakoon of the social science department of Sri Jayawardenapura University has now come to light. In the Satyagaaraya book of Sannasgala  a teacher, the books robbed by the professor is mentioned.

This professor has for his M.A. submitted a dissertation presented two years before by a student  for the B.A. degree. When Sannasgala showed this book and questioned the professor , the latter turned nervous  and clueless. The student has written it  based on the notes given to him  in the class.  The student said , the same notes are there in the professor’s  book too. 

In the book of this culprit professor ,the first part of basic social science in the seventh paragraph represents   the robbed first principles of criminology contained in  the first chapter of the book written by famous   professor Nandasena Rathnapala . 

In the book titled social behavior and personality  published in the name of this professor , what is contained in the book titled ‘Sigmund Freud and mental analysis table’ written by professor Roland Abeypala had been copied word to word. Yet in the associated books , nothing is mentioned of the book of Abeypala .The latter’s book was published in 2009 , whereas the culprit  professor has claimed his book was published in 2007  , which has been clearly proved as a falsehood. 

At the  substantiating  committee, a group of lecturers pointed out this robbery of the professor . Yet the Vice Chancellor at that time , and the present Vice Chancellor who was in the administrative board then suppressed this robbery .

It has came to light that a  book published by a lecturer of Jayawardenapura University and  a female lecturer of Kelaniya University was copied from the social science introductory book , and ‘family and society’ book written  by Hemantha Kumara , a lecturer at the Ruhunu  University social science division. Lecturers of Sri Jayawardena University and Kelaniya University later  asked pardon from Hemantha Kumara  for the wrong they committed.

If one does a stroll  around the University , another corrupt  methodology adopted when  writing such books can be noted. On the subject he/ she  wishes to write , the students are nominated  to write on that subject and after  transferring  to a CD cassette it is taken into the possession of the lecturer . Later  when the  student  sees  the book coming out in the name of the lecturer , the student has only one choice , silently say and sigh ,  ‘ this is   what we wrote.’
 
When books are being prepared for the external degree courses too , this robbery is prevalent.   These perfidious professors spend large sums of money to publish the   writings and dissertations of students   , in the form of   books in their  names, and make those  compulsory for exams. 

 It is therefore high time ,not only the pressures and influence  exerted by politicians , but even the mafia ring of professors and lecturers must be rooted  out from Universities once and for all.
