Dear Sir/Madam,

SINGLE IVORY TOWER

It is high time that the Scottish Government took on the vested interests of the educational establishment by creating a University of Scotland in order to rationalise the current distressing mishmash of Universities and former Polytechnics masquerading as such.

The ongoing saving in the emoluments of Principals alone would more than pay for any re-organisation costs and the resulting ability to keep fees down could encourage more students from England to seek the advantages of a traditional four year Scottish education thereby increasing the cultural diversity of our fair land.

Such a move would certainly be as logical as the proposed national Police and Fire Services and would be likely to have even more public support.
