Guardian article on HE

[Mung]

Have you read this?

Oy, I was just coming to post a link to that!!!

It's great great great until they wheel out Professor Alan "put them all in school and the sooner the better" Smithers in the final paragraph. He is amazing - always there ready to pontificate about HE without having a clue about it!

i agree it is really good until that last bit! what a shame to ruin a positive article about HEing like that

he's the standard "wheel him out for the negative view" academic - I think he's the only one who ever comments on HE negatively in the media (the others have actually read the research and realise that the outcomes of HE are pretty damn good really!)
