Vice-Chancellor of the University of the West Indies Professor Sir Hilary Beckles says figures compared to other areas highlight a disparity that needs to be addressed.
Sir Hilary made the remarks as he addressed the 2023 Matriculation Ceremony at the UWI Cave Hill Campus.
He’s encouraging young people to take advantage of opportunities to further their studies since according to him, it augurs well for the region.
