Editorial “Providing students with another chance to advance”, this is the business
of the Evening University Programme at the St. Augustine Campus. The
Office of the Part-time/Evening Representative along with the Evening
University Office, in an attempt to bring yet another opportunity for ad-
vancement, have teamed up to produce ‘The Evening Review”, a maga-
zine containing features, articles and general information, some written by,
while others highlighting the work of, evening students and other signifi-
cant persons. The idea to start-up this magazine was the brain-child of Mr.
Nigel Thomas, Part-time/Evening Representative, Guild of students. This
venture was favourably met by our office, as we both found it to be great
avenue to reach the Evening student body. Our first edition of The Even-
ing Review received great accolades from both the students and members
of Campus community alike, applauding the effort to integrate the Evening
University cohort of students into mainstream Campus life.

Editor purposefully decided to highlight the excellence that the University of the
West Indies is known for, by featuring persons who have attained and who
are in the process of achieving such excellence. This effort starts with the
young lady who graces our front cover. We felt it imperative to acknowl-
edge Ms. Lisa George-Sharpe, the Evening University’s top student for
the Academic year 2009/2010. The interview that follows, tells of her
confidence and determination to complete her degree with honors. As
she would say, “I knew I had to do it; and I knew I had to do it in three (3)
years”. We are grateful to Ms. George-Sharpe for sharing her story and
hope that it would give the current Evening University group the incentive
to press on. In each issue, we plan to highlight persons who have made
significant contributions institutionally, nationally and regionally. To this
end, we feature the late Trinidadian scholar and economist, Lloyd Best, in
an article written by his wife Sunity Maharaj . As the pages unfold, you
will find more and more interesting articles, including one written by Mrs.
Celena Oxley, which gives you, the reader, a snapshot into the life of an
evening student. In this issue, we also expose the appetizing local dishes
of our fellow Caribbean neighbours, as well as present tips for proper
healthcare, social awareness and provide information on the groups and
clubs that you will find around the Campus. We hope that you find this
issue as equally, if not more engaging, than the first. Best wishes.

An exclusive interview with
Ms. Lisa George-Sharpe
Question and Answer Interview with
Ms. Kristy Smith
Saturday 13th May, 2011
Evening University Office
I recently interviewed Ms. Lisa
George-Sharpe, a twenty six (26) year
old First Class honors student, formerly
registered in the Evening University
(EU) at The University of the West
Indies (UWI), St. Augustine Campus.
After three (3) years, Ms. Sharpe
attained an overall Grade Point Average
(GPA) of 3.82 upon completion of
her Bachelor of Science degree. She
majored in both Economics and
Management Studies in the Faculty of
Social Sciences. She was also named
the Best Academic Performer at Level
3, for the 2009/2010 academic year.
Lisa was quite surprised upon learning
about our interest in interviewing her,
but more so shocked upon hearing
our reason for wanting to do so. Of
course, having graduated last October
2010, she was aware of her class of
degree, but up to our point of contact,
she remained in the dark about the
other achievements that came with her
honors and her status as an Evening
student. I could hear the delight in
her voice when I informed her that,
she was indeed, the top Evening
University student in her graduating
class (2009/2010). She explained that
she attended the Faculty’s Evening of
Excellence ceremony, but was unaware
that she was the one, of out of the six
EU first class honors students, that
copped the top Evening spot.
4 EVENING REVIEW MARCH 2011
We wanted to recognize her for this
achievement and to find out a little
more about how she, as an Evening
student, managed it all – school, work
and life—while maintaining such
excellence.
KS: So tell me Lisa, what inspired
you to come back to school?
A. Well, after Secondary school I took
three (3) years off and then decided
I would apply for a scholarship to
go to University overseas. In fact, I
was successful at getting one from a
university in South Carolina, but turned
it down because I was not familiar with
that state. When I heard about GATE
it prompted me to pursue my degree
locally.
KS: Okay, but there are a host of
other tertiary level institutions across
this country, why UWI?
A. There was no other choice! UWI is
the best in Trinidad.
KS: True. I noted your age, 26, that’s
still young, you could have easily
attended the Day-time offering. What
made you decide to pursue your
degree in an Evening mode?
A. I needed to work. Also, I felt that
I would get bored with just classes in
the day. I would have too much free
time on my hands, and I also needed to
be challenged. Working and going to
school provided that.
ARTICLE
KS: What was your impression of
UWI when you first entered?
A. Wow, I found that it was big. I
got lost on many occasions. It was a
different experience from Secondary
school. There were no restrictions;
more freedom to enquire about the
academic literature that was being
delivered, the topics were a lot more
interesting and the range and ages of
the students was impressive.
KS: Can you say whether there were
any particular aides that facilitated
your life as a student?
A. Well, when I first came in, I attended
the Faculty’s orientation session at the
Learning Resource Center (LRC) and
I also visited the Dept. of Economics
and found the staff there very helpful.
Thereafter, I read and followed the
Faculty handbook which was straight-
forward particularly for the double
major I was pursuing. I had a clear
understanding of the structure of my
programme and though from time to
time I experienced some clashes with
my elective options, I got to do most
of the courses I wanted. If there was a
clash, I would drop one of the courses
and pick up an alternative option. I
didn’t take the chance to do half of one
and half of the other.
KS: Did you take part in any extra-
circular activities?
A. No. I had no time for that. I came to
class and left afterwards. I didn’t feel
much like I was a part of the university
as an evening student, because most
EVENING REVIEW MARCH 2011 5
 ARTICLE
of the events took place during the
daytime.
KS: Can you remember which was
one of your more interesting classes?
A. Oh definitely! That would have to
be Caribbean Economy with Dennis
Pantin. At first, I didn’t want to do
the course, but there were no other
options available that semester. That
class opened my eyes, to a whole
new brand of Economics that I never
knew existed. All I knew was what I
read in the assigned textbooks, which
focused on economics in the first world
countries. That there was Economics
tailored to the Caribbean, was new
to me. I was mostly impressed by
his teaching style, he just had all
the information in his head, never
really used lecture notes. It was
pretty amazing. The second was
Econometrics with Angela Henry, she
did not teach from a textbook as well,
and the course allowed me to apply
economics to our economy through the
different econometrics models.
KS: Have you been able to identify
how you learn best?
A. Definitely not just ‘learning off’
anything at all. That is, I don’t just
read and read the information over and
over, like cramming. I would read the
information and when I understand
the concept it becomes easy for me
to apply the knowledge. I tried to go
to all of my classes. I usually study
better alone and only after would I
join a group. I study by reading out
the information aloud, I cannot study
quietly (just as loud as I’m speaking
now). I sometimes tape myself while
reading. It’s as though I’m teaching
myself. I think that students need to
find out what works for them and
stick to it. This worked for me. I also
reviewed many past papers. I found
that it acted as a guide to answering
future questions.
KS: In terms of examinations
techniques, what are some of the pre
6 EVENING REVIEW MARCH 2011
and post examination strategies you
used?
A. I studied up to twenty minutes
before the exam and avoided any
peer contact after that. You know,
sometimes you meet other students
and the questions they ask put doubt
in your mind about how much you
really know. When I get into the
room, I relax… oh no, first, I pray and
then I read the entire paper. I don’t
answer any questions before I read the
entire paper. I choose the questions
that I think I would do my best in and
estimate the marks that I could gain
from attempting it. If I get stuck on
a question, I stop and clear my head,
but I never just stop writing. I always
answer all the questions. I also try to
sit at the front of the exam room so that
I won’t get distracted. Also, I plan my
essays in my head depending on the
course. If it’s Math I’d write it down, if
it’s English and if it’s not complicated,
I could plan it in my head while
studying. But most of all, I never leave
out anything, I always write something.
KS: Okay, so the next set of questions
surrounds your full experience: being
a student and having to balance
that with your work life and home/
social life. Tell me about some of the
challenges you experienced, if any
and how you overcame them?
A. For me, if I know I have to do
something, I will do it. I would go to
work for 7:00 a.m. and leave at 3:00
p.m. in traffic coming from the West to
attend UWI. Then I have to deal with
parking issues at UWI. If I knew that I
was not in the frame of mind to absorb
the information on a given day I would
adjust to suit. I had classes practically
every day because I was pursuing
the maximum of four (4) course per
semester and three (3) in the Summer.
I was often very tired and could not go
on too many outings. But , I guess I
knew I had to do it and I knew I had to
do it in three (3) years.
KS: What was one of your most
fulfilling experiences during your
degree?
A. (She pauses) It would have to
be a course. I got a B in one of my
economics courses, and that was my
best grade ever. I failed the mid-term.
In fact, I think only one person in the
class passed it. But I was determined
to pass the course. I put in a lot of
extra work to pass the exam and to
maintain my grade point average
(GPA). I did more work for that ‘B’
than for any ‘A’ I ever got!
KS: How did you feel about earning
first class honors?
A. I felt the reward of achieving
first class honors particularly at the
Faculty’s Evening of Excellence
ceremony. Receiving the award made
it all worth it.
KS: Did you attend your graduation
ceremony?
A. Yes, I did. I was really impressed
by the Dean’s orating. He kept the
ceremony lively.
KS: With your degree now in hand,
have you seen any benefits of it in the
workplace?
A. Definitely. My education at UWI has
helped me to grow a lot. There were
two courses I did that coincidentally,
were unplanned, but those two courses
are extremely relevant to my current
position.
KS: Do you have any plans to do
Post-graduate studies?
A. Well, I’m starting a first degree in
Law in September. And I will pursue
a Masters degree in Economics in the
future.
KS: Tell me, did you have any
support systems in place during your
degree?
A. Yes. My mother lives abroad, so I
had overseas support. But it was mostly
my boyfriend Dwane. He always made
sure I did what I had to do.
KS: What motivates you?
ARTICLE
A. I like challenges. I do not like failing
and I burn the midnight oil until I have
a clear understanding of things. I never
think about just getting a pass grade.
I know exactly the grade I want and
I work and write for it. I know what
has to be done and even if it means
planning out and studying four (4)
subjects the weeks before the exams, I
do it. The key for me is understanding
everything. I never felt like I wasted
time; I was studying for a purpose. You
know, it’s not that it’s easy, but it’s not
something that’s impossible to do. So I
like to think that I can do it.
KS: Did you make any friends during
your time at UWI?
A. Yes, a few, mainly in the evening
group. I found the experience with
the evening students more enriching
because of their seriousness and
maturity.
KS: If given the opportunity, what
are some of the tips you would pass
on to an Evening University student?
A. Be aware of the courses you have
to do in your programme. Have a
plan, time management is important.
Prioritize your goals. Attend all
tutorials. Create a network, a support
group. Ask questions if you don’t
understand something. Do whatever
you have to do to get where you want
to be. If you fail one course, it’s not
the end of the world. It teaches you
what needs to be done. Develop your
own learning and studying style, what
may work for one person may not work
for another. You know yourself better
than anyone else, therefore you should
know what will work for you.
KS: Is there anything else you would
like to say in closing?
A. I’d just like to say that I’m thankful
to the Evening University Office for
informing me of this achievement and
for highlighting it in this manner.

All About Dance
Katrina Ramdath - President Bsc. International Tourism Management Faculty of Social Sciences
“Mirrors of Self-Expression” appropri-
ately represents the function of the Uni-
versity of the West Indies Dance Theatre
(UWI Dance Theatre). It is also symbolic
of the passion that flows through the
veins, minds and bodies of every person
that captures moments to dance.
Dancing knows no boundaries. The
art of dance enables a person to truly
connect their mind with their body,
through rhythmic timings and bodily
expressions. It is by this token that the
UWI Dance Theatre functions, to give
persons the opportunity to seek free-
dom from their some-what daily work-
ing routines and to release any form of
negative energy through dance.
While it is a remarkable method of
exercise and contributes to a healthy
10 EVENING REVIEW MARCH 2011
lifestyle, dance also builds up pride
and self-confidence on a personal
level, and does not discriminate on
age, body-type or personality. Dancing
has allowed persons to create an ec-
centric alter ego whereby they, as the
dancer, are limitless in taking chances
to embrace opportunities, utilizing
their bodies as a ‘puppet’, to express
their emotions through body lan-
guage. As long you can move, you are
capable of dance. The simple essence
of dance, is being familiar with your
body and knowing how to combine the
movements of a particular dance, with
the rhythmic beats found in different
genres of music.
At UWI Dance Theatre there are
various types of Dance being offered.
They range from Hip-Hop to Modern

They were those who felt that some-
thing was wrong... or imperfect... or
could be better- and they would step
up to the plate themselves to try to put
things on the right track. They would
speak out against wrong and demand
equity. They would patiently put in the
hard work and toil required to make a
difference in their sphere of influence.
Some people contend that a socially
conscious person tends to be empa-

poignant statement, but in reading it,
I realized that this was where it all be-

Q: “Must I be an African native to

A: No, the UWI African Society ex-

persons. Our primary membership lies
with nationals of Trinidad and Tobago
that are of African ethnicity. However,
it is not limited to such individu-
als. We do have members from other
Caribbean islands as well as African
natives, including persons of other eth-
nicities. A diversity that is very much
welcomed.
Q: Does the society promote segrega-
tion or racism?
A: God not partial, he is God for the
Black man, the Chinese man, the In-
dian and White man too…all ethnici-
ties under the sun. <words extracted

Q: “If my hair is straightened will I be

A: It was actually an African Ameri-
can woman that invented the hair
straightening chemical <Black In-
ventions Link>. So whether your
hair is straight, curly like a dougla
or plain woolly it doesn’t matter. As
for clothes, in today’s society anyone
can buy an identity as everything is
fashionable and few things remain
sacred. So “render your hearts and not
your garments”, come as who you are,
you can grow to be mindful of who
you are.
Q: Does the society promote Black/
African Supremacy?
A: The UWI Afrikan Society pro-
motes consciousness. We promote
the consciousness of African culture
not for the purpose of supremacy but
rather for that of equity. We create a
space where together we can recount
the holocaust of our ancestors, but
more importantly where we can share
our experiences of being or interacting
with persons of African descent while
living in the West Indies.

TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO – Crab and Callaloo
The beautiful twin island of Trinidad and Tobago is known for having so
many delicious, mouth-watering national dishes. Curried Crab and Callaloo
is one of the many national dishes of Trinidad and Tobago. Callaloo is a soup
that’s spicy and creamy made from dasheen leaves as the main ingredient.
This dish is traditionally made with ocean fresh land crabs. In Trinidad and
Tobago, crabs are traditionally cooked whole and the meat is carefully picked
out, removing any bits of shell or cartilage. This sophisticated dish may be
served as a side dish with cou-cou, rice, stew, pie or salad of any kind.
JAMAICA – ACKEE AND SALT FISH
Ackee & saltfish is considered to be Jamaica’s national, traditional and

saltfish is also eaten for breakfast by the locals. Ackee is a fruit (also known
as the guinep) boiled, drained and simmered in oil along with salted codfish
(saltfish) and seasonings to create the island’s national dish.

Of Hue ….The Untold Story The perception of Art for most people
conforms to a two dimensional pictorial
surface which is not entirely true, most
people need to see something tangible
in order to understand, the artist, the
curator, the inventor, the theorist, the
scientist etc., are all artist of sort,
whose thinking outside the box has
often been condemned as crazy.
It’s been noted that things we don’t
understand we often condemn,
so it becomes very interesting
when an artist twists and turns
a painting concept, sculpture,
writings, figures, theories or some
kind of art form as to generate
interest of conscious thinking
creating an awareness that speaks
to those who cannot hear and to
create sensation for those who
cannot feel. The moment you stop to
think or try to analyse a piece of art
work critically or otherwise you evoke
conscious thinking of identification and
ownership, the artist then has achieved
the objective.

It breaks my heart to know that
the art department has to take a

do fashions art from the way we

Emotional Healthy living is a core

It was November 2006 when Professor Gurmohan
Kochhar, then Deputy Principal of the St. Augustine
Campus responded to a number of unmet needs of
the campus student community. It was a time when
The University of the West Indies was witnessing
an increase in the number of students generally and
of students either failing courses or taking longer to
graduate. There was also an increase in applicants
with disabilities and an absence of the necessary
services to support these students.
Out of the quest to address the needs for accessibility
and equal opportunities, and in keeping with UWI’s
philosophy the Academic Advising/Disabilities Liaison
Unit (AADLU) was born. The team of Mr. Anthony
Del Jackman, Ms. Gabrielle Rousseau and Mrs.
Jeanette Reyes (who joined shortly after) was specially
selected to carry the mantle and the rest is history.
The Unit has since become the first and most important
stop for high quality academic support for the diverse
populations of students throughout the University
including full-time, part-time and evening students
and international students, but especially students with
disabilities. For the academic year 2010-2011, the Unit
can boast of a student registration of approximately
150 students from the St. Augustine Campus, Arthur
Lok Jack Graduate School of Business, UWI Open
Campus and The University of the Southern
Caribbean. In keeping with its founder’s vow to ensure
that no student should be left behind, and that each
student gets support, AADLU has changed its name to
ASDLU: Academic Support/Disabilities Liaison Unit.

2. Providing and ensuring equal access

The process of successful delivery of services includes

• The provision of assistive aids and devices

• Academic support services during the course
of study including tutoring, educational assessment,
and exposure to study skills and examination
strategies.
• Provision of adequate examination
accommodation, i.e. separate room, extra time, use
of assistive devices, Non-Medical assistance such as
writers, readers and invigilators.
• Provision of advice to Faculty, administrative
staff and other key stakeholders (internal and external)

ASDLU continues to fall within the ambit of Student
Services under the auspices of the Office of the Deputy
Principal. It will continue to serve as a resource and

One of the main mantras of the Guild of Students has

been trying to develop the ideal formula for student
integration. Given the fact that the St. Augustine
campus is made up of diverse student cohorts, part of
the challenge has been linked to tailoring initiatives
that would meet the holistic needs to the varying com-
munities on campus.

With specific reference to members of the part-time

and evening community, over the academic year 2010/
2011, a brazen attempt was made to re-define how the
Guild Council prepared its academic programme to
meet the overarching needs of the students. Thus, while
emphasis was committed to strengthening part-time
and evening students’ academic learning experience and
accompanying services they received, the Guild Coun-
cil also felt sufficient wasn’t being done to provide an
overall university experience that facilitated their overall
development. Consequently, this provided an opportunity
for the Guild Council to meet social developmental aspect
of part-time and evening students.

Thus, the Office of the Part-time and Evening Representa-

tive, along with the Student Activity Chairperson in col-
laboration with Limited Edition Main Stage presented the
first ever cultural event entitled, Spirits of the Arts, which
was held at the DAAGA auditorium on the 16th October,
2010, with its original conception being design to accommo-
date part-time and evening students.

The cultural concert was conceptually envisioned to provide

a social space so students of the mature and working com-
munity on campus could experience a feeling of inclusivity
and allow their families to share the experience with them.
The concert featured over fourteen different artistes; with
several presentations being live instrument bands and ranging
across several musical genres. Fine art, sculpture, dance, music,
poetry and video marked an evening of elegance and quality
production all designed to provide a new and transformed social
concept.

As the Guild Council moves forward providing in providing

student service over the next academic year, it will continue to
meet the needs of the student populace and create cultural spaces
for liberating the spirits of the arts.
