Vice-Chancellor/Chancellor edit

Latest comment: 12 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The current wording of the first item isn't quite correct.

Chancellor (education), the chief executive of a British or Commonwealth university (and is also used in some American universities)

Although the article is Chancellor (education), the role of CEO at a British or Commonwealth university is performed by the Vice-Chancellor. The role of the Chancellor is that of the non-executive head. But the wording here suggests otherwise. I'm wondering of there are any suggestions on how to clarify this? My best thought is to refer directly to the Commonwealth role and make the link Vice-Chancellor (education), and drop the reference to American universities where the Vice-Chanceelor term isn't used in the same way. - Bilby (talk) 03:58, 7 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
