All must have prizes
May 5th, 2004[Original Link] Three things that get my goat:
- The government’s constant striving to push as many kids as possible into higher education, (which is nothing whatsoever to do with keeping unemployment figures down),
- the inflation of A-level grades (because everybody’s suddenly got so much cleverer over the last ten years)
- The ridiculously low salaries of UK academics
All of which are components behind this report that Cambridge University is thinking of building three more colleges.
