With apologies for cross-posting
Following letters from CVCP and HESA, and reactions from a number of
institutions, the Sunday Times have agreed to re-consider their survey
and will come back to CVCP with alternative proposals tomorrow. Once we
have discussed these with them, CVCP will issue further guidance to our
members.
Meanwhile we have heard from many universities who are disinclined to
respond to the survey and who will await further news from CVCP before
taking any action. They include Cambridge, Edinburgh, Essex, Heriot
Watt, Leicester, Manchester, North London, Oxford, Strathclyde, Sussex,
York - a good cross section. We hope that most other institutions
would take this line also, and I would appreciate hearing from others to
confirm that they too would take this position.
An email from the appropriate institution contact to me, (rather than to
the list), would be helpful and reduce the burden on colleagues'
in-boxes.
