Refocusing universities on student issues

I just read this article online and am concerned about priorities…Universities need to get their priorities sorted so that they tackle issues that are more important to students.Did you know that if you are an international student or a postgraduate student, you are, on average, paying £70 per hour for contact time at university in London? With teaching standards in university plummeting, why is it that university administration is stressing about the political correctness of calling the chair of a committee a chairwoman, a chairman or a chairperson? Surely teaching standards, better quality halls of residence and more sports facilities are far more pressing matters?
