As predicted

I suggested yesterday that the proposed New College of Humanities (profit-making, £18,000) per year would be a sham.

I was right: it's offering the same University of London External degree, lots of the course content is stolen, and the celebrity profs are merely window-dressing:

In another blow to the fledgling institution, it was reported today that two of the high-profile academics involved – historians Sir David Cannadine and Linda Colley – will only teach for an hour each in the institution’s first year.


Anyone who goes there will get what they deserve.
