I agree that we will have to establish whether HE institutes furnish qualifications or teach students to think ("Why I..., THES, January 26). I blame Thatcherite culture for this.
In 1995 at King Alfred's students were asking me: "What do I have to do to pass this course?" Nobody asked "what will I learn from doing this course?" You pay your money, you expect your qualification.
