DIANA WARWICK, Chief Executive of the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals, in her letter defending the policy of charging tuition fees to students (23 March), conveniently did not draw attention to the real injustice for students from low income families. It is they who will have to borrow the full cost of maintenance for each academic year, which will result in them leaving university with a far greater burden of debt than students from more affluent families.
