Friends,
A footnote on Duncan of Jordanstone is in order. I should note that Duncan of Jordanstone is now part of the University of Dundee, a first-rate research university. DJ merged into Dundee in 1996, and in the years since, it has become a first-rate research environment in a top quality research university. I am assuming that Mike McAuley is of an age that put him at Duncan of Jordanstone prior to the merger when it offered an excellent but different kind of education. DJ is still a first rate deign school, and it is now a first-rate research school as well.

Your experience at Duncan of Jordanstone would not be applicable in this debate for two reasons. First, this was not a research university but an old-fashioned artisan craft guild school. It's known as an excellent school, but it's quite a different model to the models we are discussing.
