Which? is the way to ask sector tough questions

Times Higher Education, p. 16, Jack Grove, 19/07/12

Article on the potential impact of a new university information website set up by Which? includes comment by David Palfreyman, Fellow and Bursar of New College and director of the Oxford Centre for Higher Education Policy Studies. “At the moment, a dirty deal is done where politicians do not really want the world to know students are being short-changed as [teaching] money is spent on research,” said Mr Palfreyman. “They don't want to reveal the size of seminar classes or that tutorials are being run by PhD students on £25 an hour rather than full-time members of staff. You cannot get that data now, but Which? could ask those questions.”
