  1. Applications for the CUSU Shadowing Scheme close a week today. You can apply online at http://bit.ly/87FPGH
  2. :-( "One in 10 of those questioned who advise students about university were also unaware of the bursaries" http://bit.ly/7I9453
  3. Today we are standing up for the interests of future students. Join us as we march through Cambridge for a fairer funding system. #FOF
  4. Met with three great people who were interested in various part time exec positions today. Looking forward to tomorrow's election. :-)
  5. Had a meeting to discuss what we can do to support and encourage more students with disabilities to apply to Cambridge. Watch this space.
  6. Just on my way to meet Michael Watts from CAO to discuss innovation in Widening Participation/Access.
  7. @AaronPorter - Is the actual framework document out yet or is it being released to the public later on today?
  8. Mandelson: Need more teacher's who think that going to university is not elitist or superior.
  9. Mandelson: I would have never thought of applying to Oxford were it not for my Economic's teacher.
  10. Question to Mandelson in the Lords: What will be done to improve advice to young people in schools, in particular the aspiration gap?
  11. Mandelson: Universities not factories for producing workers
  12. Mandelson: Important to stress that if students are going to be asked to make greater payments they must be treated like paying customers!!!
  13. Mandelson:The Tories massively expanded HE in the 90s by doubling the number of students but halving funding per student
  14. Mandelson: Education not high on the priority list of the shadow chancellor
  15. Mandelson: Sir Martin Harris' review of access to more selective universities will have time to feed into the fees review
  16. Mandelson: Fees will include review of funding for part time students
  17. Mandelson: No excuse about what happened at SLC
  18. Mandelson: Sorry that the SLC's service has fallen well short of expectations
  19. Mandelson: falling numbers of young people mean we need to look at how we can attract more mature students into uni
  20. Couldn't agree more. RT @1994group: All students with the ability to go to university must be able to access the top universities.
