Abstract

Discussing the history of changes in the philosophy underpinning universities, Harriet Swain (2011) cites the German philosopher Wilhelm von Humboldt, who in 1810 proposed that a university encompassed the whole community of scholars and students engaged in a common search for truth; while Cardinal Newman in 1852 posited that a university should be a place of teaching �universal� knowledge. More recently, the UK government commissioned a report (Swain, 2011) on the future of higher education (HE) that concluded that universities had four main objectives: – Instruction in skills. – Promotion of the general powers of the mind. – Advancement of learning. – Transmission of a common culture and common standards of citizenship.
