Does it cross the line to get help dotting the I’s and crossing the t’s?
Times Higher Education, 15/08/2013, p.9
She pointed out that in 2011 the Office of the Independent Adjudicator urged universities to develop policies on what kind of help students were allowed to access. It followed the scandal over alleged plagiarism and excessive assistance given to Saif al-Islam Gaddafi during his doctoral studies at the London School of Economics.

What are you reading?
Times Higher Education, 15/08/2013, p.43
Tim Forsyth, professor of environment and development, London School of Economics, is reading Mark P. Hampton’s Backpacker Tourism and Economic Development: Perspectives from the Less Developed World (Routledge, 2013). “A colourful and absorbing analysis of the history and economic impact of backpackers. Full of personal anecdotes from previous travellers, plus primary research about economic benefits arising from activities such as Full Moon Parties. It shows how backpacking has changed from ‘hippies’ to higher-spending tourists, often on gap years. An impressive, entertaining work that advances studies of both economic development and tourism.”

Political decisions: No compromise on content
The Guardian (G2), 15/08/2013, p.38, Helena Pozniak
I desperately wanted a university place - I did feel a sense of urgency. I got AAA, but didn't get into any of my choices - LSE, Oxford, Cambridge and Warwick. I looked at all the courses I was interested in: Southampton was the only Russell Group university offering an interdisciplinary course in the way I wanted.

Carrot or stick? Why we need tax breaks for private landlords
guardian.co.uk (Web), 14/08/2013, Unattributed
Research by the London School of Economics found the UK tax regime less favourable to landlords than those of other countries. Unlike those in Germany, France and America, landlords in the UK cannot set rental losses against other income and there is no depreciation allowance for residential dwellings.

Is it OK to snoop on your partner?
MSN UK (Web), 14/08/2013, Unattributed
Similarly, researchers from the London School of Economics, the University of Oxford and Nottingham Trent University recently found that in a fifth of marriages one or both partners had checked the other’s texts or emails. “Our findings showed that there are surprisingly high levels of surveillance,” said Ellen Helsper, who led the study. “One of the surprising findings was that surveillance was undertaken more often by wives than husbands.”
