Talk:University constituency

message: This article is an excellent example of how the word "university" is undergoing capitalization in wide society today so that just about any occurence must be "University", irrespective of the rules of capitalization!  Djegan 19:12, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC)

message: The article says: "India had university constituencies before independence, but these were abolished with the adoption of the modern Constitution of India."  Since the modern Constitution was adopted in 1950, did these university constituencies persist from 1947 to 1950?  And did they exist in Pakistan? --Jfruh (talk) 18:19, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Article states (as at 13/12/2016)
Only graduates who are Irish citizens are entitled to vote in these elections.
Can someone point me to the grounds for this claim in law, either in the Constitution or in statute law?
The Constitution contains criteria for Dail Eireann voting rights (18 years old, not disallowed by law (mental capacity, forfeiture etc) and are Irish citizens and such other persons as established by law - as of 13/12/2016 this second category is solely British citizens and/or British nationals) and for Dail Eireann membership rights.
It then goes on to list the stricter membership requirements, age 21, Irish citizens only.
The constitutional section on the Senate doesn't have a section on who is entitled to vote other than saying as regulated by law.
The section on Senate membership states that it is the same as the Dail membership criteria.78.16.206.115 (talk) 21:54, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

message: In my understandings Japanese universities had never been given their own constituency. ja:貴族院 (日本) (House of Peers, abolished in 1947) reads that Imperial Universities were represented in House of Peers  from its beginning, but all these representatives were appointed by the Emperor in advice of the cabinet. Universities themselves thus had no way to represent their own opinions in this process technically.  To the contrary Imperial Academy (帝国学士院）had a constituency whose members had right to run, vote and be elected, but academy in this context is an institute formed by selected scholars, no university. --Aphaia (talk) 21:56, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
