Mapping the future of British Universities in a changing world Can
the Prizes still Glitter? is edited by Hugo de Burgh (Editor of
China in Britain, Professor of Journalism and Director of the China
Media Centre at the University of Westminster), Anna Fazackerley
(Director of Education Think Tank Agora) and Jeremy Black
(Professor of History at Exeter University). It is the inaugural
publication of Agora, a new independent think tank focusing on the
future of our universities, and offers a fascinating insight into
Britain's academic institutions in an ever-changing world.
Thirty-four contributors, including eight vice chancellors (and, of
course, our very own Terence Kealey), politicians, business leaders
and academics from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and a
range of institutions have written personal essays outlining where
universities are now and where they ought to be. Between them,
these engaging thinkers tackle the entire spectrum of higher
education. Individually and collectively they confront many of the
big and uncomfortable issues facing Britain, exhibit some of the
solutions of which individual institutions are proud, and delineate
the kind of tough decisions and actions that politicians and
university leaders need to undertake in order for British
institutions to match the rapid progress evident elsewhere in the
world.
