Where students actually went over a decade
An analysis tracks how student numbers moved between subjects and providers over ten years: growth in business, computing and health, contraction in languages and some humanities, and a steady shift towards a smaller number of large institutions. It is the long view behind every course closure announced this year, and useful context if your department feels precarious.
Where university money is invested, and who asks
A student piece on universities’ investments in arms and defence companies and the campaigns pressing them to divest. Endowment holdings are disclosed in annual accounts but rarely itemised, and freedom of information requests are how students have obtained the detail at several institutions this year.
