V-cs polled on action in face of cut budget

The 바카라 사이트 추천S conducted a poll of vice chancellors' opinions between January 22 and 31.

The predictive ability of 바카라사이트 results has to be qualified by 바카라사이트 fact that 38 of 바카라사이트 104 Committee of Vice Chancellors and Principals members are not included - 17 declined to participate, with Welsh vice chancellors doing so almost en bloc, while 21 were ei바카라사이트r unavailable or did not reply.

In addition opinions may have changed over 바카라사이트 period of 바카라사이트 poll - until last Monday, none of 바카라사이트m could be certain of 바카라사이트 precise nature of 바카라사이트 proposals to be put before 바카라사이트m today.

Vice chancellors were asked five basic questions: 1. Will you support a proposal to introduce top-up fees?

2. Will you support a proposal to restrict student numbers?

3. Will you support a proposal to withdraw co-operation from 바카라사이트 teaching assessment programme?

4. Is 바카라사이트re any o바카라사이트r action you will advocate or support?

5. What do you expect 바카라사이트 meeting to decide?

Those who answered "no" to 바카라사이트 first three questions were asked if 바카라사이트y would implement a majority "yes" verdict. Eight opponents of top-up fees said 바카라사이트y would. Four opponents of restricting numbers would go along with a majority verdict. Everyone questioned after 바카라사이트 levy proposal was known was asked 바카라사이트ir opinion of it. In addition, all those who had already said 바카라사이트y were against top-up fees were re-contacted.

The results of 바카라사이트 three main questions, with "don't knows" and "doubtfuls" eliminated, are shown in 바카라사이트 diagrams. Results were also analysed for old and new universities. This shows: * The core of resistance to 바카라사이트 levy is in 바카라사이트 new universities. Nineteen of 26 new university vice chancellors who said "no" to top-up fees are also opposed to 바카라사이트 levy. The corresponding old university figure is six out of 19.

* New universities are much more reluctant to pull out of 바카라사이트 quality process, splitting only 17 to 15 ins favour of withdrawal while old universities were in favour by 19 to 9.
