Talk:Higher Education Funding Council for England
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Have removed the following:
"the work of HEFCE, particularly the effect of the Research Assessment Excercise, is controversial. The following article, 'The Art of Punishing' offers a Foucaultian analysis
- http://epaa.asu.edu/epaa/v6n8.html/ Education Policy Analysis Archives"
Apart from any wikipedia policies this contravenes it is actually facutually incorrect. HEFCE does not "run" the Research Assessment exercise - it is run on behalf of all 4 UK funding councils. HEFCE research funding policy may have an effect as suggested, and it is controversial in many ways (though arguably no less fair than any sensible alternative) and I would suggest that the article is re-written to make this point in a wikipedia-like even-handed fashion.
