Funds for the construction were provided by the Government of Serbia.

After handing over the keys, the director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Petar Petković, said that the construction of two more residential buildings in Zvečan was in progress.

“A total of 17 new buildings and 202 apartments in the north of Kosovo and Metohija. Last year we built 10 new buildings, all for our people, because our future is here, because we want to survive and stay here, and what makes us especially happy is that you could all you see is a large number of children, who welcomed us at the entrance.This is our future, we are fighting for it, we are fighting for peace, stability, for science and for knowledge and that is all that we sublimate on this occasion, among other things and in this distribution to our dear fellow citizens here in Zvečan “, said Petković.

Rector of the University of Mitrovica, Zdravko Vitosevic, said that the University as an institution does not mean much if there is no adequate space, adding that the space is being built thanks to President Aleksandar Vucic, thanks to whom funds were provided for the construction of the most modern building for the University of Mitrovica.

He stated that without staff, the University cannot function and that this is an opportunity for the best, those who are determined to stay in Kosovo and Metohija, and are employed at the University, to get a space where their families will have the opportunity to receive their knowledge in Kosovo and Metohija. not only from his parents, but also from the best at the University.

In our oldest and largest higher education institution, they believe that 2020 was perhaps even better than expected. At the end of this semester, there is more space for practical exercises.

“Classes have been combined throughout this semester, only the last wave was so intense that I think almost everything took place online. I believe that the faculties will make the most of the reduction in the number of infected to bring students back to the faculty buildings. This promises that exam deadlines will to be able to be realized normally “, points out prof. Ivanka Popović, Rector of the University of Belgrade.

They also say that during the pandemic, the university showed its strength and adapted to the situation.

Scholarship money also comes from renting out university space.

“However, the most important thing is the health of the students. The university exists for the sake of the students, not for us who are professors, and because of them I think it is important for the Government of the Republic of Serbia to take a clear and precise position on restitution.” his draft law on restitution to the Government of the Republic of Serbia “, stated prof. Aleksandar Popović, President of the Council of the University of Belgrade.

Between the two world wars, with assets estimated at one billion dollars at the time, the University of Belgrade was among the three richest universities in Europe. For now, the work of 11 endowments and three funds has been renewed.

The amount was announced in the High Court in Los Angeles, after the lawyers of more than 700 women who sued the university stated that they accepted the compensation amount of 852 million dollars.

The USC previously agreed to pay former students a sum of 215 million dollars in a case that received an epilogue in 2018 before a federal court.

Tyndall, the only full-time gynecologist at the student health clinic from 1989 to 2016, was accused of abusing a generation of women from the United States. After the Times uncovered his troubled history at the university three years ago, the 74-year-old was stripped of his medical license and arrested.

He has pleaded not guilty to dozens of sexual assault charges and is awaiting trial.

The University of California settlement, according to the paper, is covering up recent payments in other university scandals.

Huge sums were paid by other universities as well

The State University of Michigan paid $ 500 million in connection with the sexual abuse of gymnasts and others for which Larry Nasser is accused, while Penn State had to settle claims related to the sexual abuse of Jerry Sandusky for more than 109 million dollars.

The huge number of potential victims, about 17,000 women that Tyndall treated for three decades, also made a mass settlement inevitable, according to the LA Times.

Prosecutors’ lawyers were also “armed” with evidence that university officials had known about the problems with Tyndall for decades and had failed to fire him. Staff internal files detail how complaints about Tyndall have been abused or ignored over and over again, prompting the U.S. Department of Education to sanction the university last year.

Tindala reported a nurse

Within a few years of Tyndall’s arrival on campus, clinic supervisors learned from the patient and colleagues that the doctor had photographed the student’s genitals, according to a 2018 study. The photos were later found in his personal pantry and office.

Students told clinic staff that he asked them questions about their sex lives and gave suggestive comments about their bodies. Nurses have reported for years that he inappropriately touched female students during examinations.

Only after nurse Cindy Gilbert reported Tyndall’s behavior at the campus rape crisis center in 2016, the USC suspended him and launched an internal investigation.

Tyndall was allowed to resign in silence, and the USC never warned the California Medical Board until the paper began inquiring with university staff about it.
