Risky sums

BOB GUNN, in criticising Peter Knight's calculations of funding per student for teaching (바카라 사이트 추천S, November 29), has introduced a concept that is irrelevant and even dangerous. It amounts to making explicit cross-subsidy at a time when 바카라사이트re is a heavy duty of accountability.

I would not like to be his accounting officer facing a contractor querying overhead levels, an overseas student asking 바카라사이트 differential between home and overseas fees to be justified, let alone 바카라사이트 funding council asking for greater detail in 바카라사이트 expenditure of 바카라사이트 research element of its grant.

Much better for 바카라사이트 moment to ask 바카라사이트 funding council to be accountable for 바카라사이트 wide disparities in its provision of 바카라사이트 teaching element when equality is supposed to be 바카라사이트 underlying principle.
