Re: Spending money
> creating more students doesn't create more jobs requiring graduate qualifications
"I don't often talk to arts graduates, but when I do, I ask for mine with extra fries"
Students in the current environment take "soft" and "cheap" degrees. Those are the ones which have no real job market, but you get a "degree" attached to your name.
Hard sciences and vocationally-related jobs are still in demand. The problem is that graduates incur such high levels of debt that they may never be able to pay it off.
