And "university" is not misleading. It is historically used very broadly in English languate - amk does certainly fit in the spectrum. Only the finnish equivalent word, yliopisto, is (=or we are?) anal-retentive. Just about every AMK offers masters programs. And “university” is not misleading.

Saanen kysyä, että mikä on pointti - ja FAT, exFAT-patentit ovat vahvoin veikkaukseni. Näilläkö nyt aiotaan patenttien varjolla rahastaa isosti meitä kaikkia, jotka emme sen w-toosan maailmaan suostu alistumaan? Ongelmahan on nyt ettei SDXC:n myötä horisontista nousevaa exFATia oikein voi millään muulla käyttää, eikä näköpiirissäkään - vai tuleeko teiltä Tuxerasta vielä avoin & ilmainen tuki sille?

However I wonder how CC is better license than, say, the verbatim license (http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/licenses.html#VerbatimCopying) endorsed by the Free Software Foundation for scientific papers. The latter has the clear advantage of being concise and understandable (which is why I used it for my thesis; first I was going to use the cc-by-nd, but halfway reading through the license I got frustrated and gave up.)

The Finnish universities of applied science are granting undergrad "Bachelor of arts" degrees. The universities that have master programs were not among the institutions to adapt the policies. Nevertheless, I know that they are following closely how the 26 schools are doing and have their own projects to take advantage of the OA-model Anonymous: Yes I realized it myself.

The "have nots" of the world are starving for information, and the university system tends to hoard it for the "haves". But, when we think of knowledge the way Thomas Jefferson did, as a candle that we can light other candles with, and not diminish our own, knowledge becomes a public good. Knowledge should be accessible to people so they can use it to lift themselves out of poverty, and to promote innovation. Besides, we don't go to universities for access to professors alone. We go for access to students, too. Students play an important role in defining a university. So, even if knowledge becomes open, like this, there is still primary value that universities have that gives them a comparative advantage over someone just having access to research, etc. This thinking was a big motivator behind http://themorningsidepost.com , a site I used to co-manage at Columbia University. That site has a goal of providing a window into Columbia's School of International and Public Affairs, so the world could potentially benefit from the knowledge within that school.
