Rise in incomes should lay foundations for new universities
Financial Times, 16/01/2013, p.4, Chris Cook
But Nicholas Barr, a professor at the London School of Economics, thinks the reforms are “flawed”. The main problem being that the loan scheme, which covers the fee and living costs of all UK and other EU students, will recover too little of the money lent. He said: “The Treasury cannot afford university expansion, largely because the loans are so expensive [for public finances]. If the universities cannot expand, it creates a seller’s market for the universities. Hence there will be weaker competition that will do less to improve quality.”

knit the entire community together, we'd think about them as places, in sum, which the community should support. That means subsidy. Richard Sennett is a professor of sociology at the London School of Economics, and professor of social science at MIT Youth services, libraries creches and the like, which all face cuts, are obvious candidates for empty premises
