Abstract
THE Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University have just appeald through the medium of the Press for at least 250,000l. to enable our oldest university to meet the demands that are made upon it by the ever-expanding requirements of modern learning. This appeal, coming so soon after a similar plea for a million and a half pounds, put forward recently by the Duke of Devonshire on behalf of the University of Cambridge, again brings into prominence me general question of the place of tha university in the modern State and the duty of a Government in relation to the financial needs of institutions of higher learning.
