The Future of the Victoria University

Abstract

DURING the next few months the Privy Council will be called upon to come to a decision on a matter vitally affecting higher education in the north of England. The Victoria University, which has been in existence for twenty-three years, has come to a stage in its career when its future must be definitely settled. Liverpool has applied for a separate charter, and Owens College gives its hearty support to the establishment of three distinct and independent universities in place of the present federation.
