The Great Gamble
There was a time, not too long ago, when the mere mention of money was anathema in sports ~ professionals were allowed in Wimbledon for the first time in 1968, and in the Olympics only from 1988.
Bharathiar University on Thursday announced it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the University of Johannesburg, South Africa, providing for cooperation in academic activities.
The MoU would pave the way for the fine blend of academic learning and hands on experience in research for the student communities of both the organisations, it said in a release.
