The Fees Rebel Ruling Cambridge

Alison Richard squeals when I ask about a photograph that apparently shows her scrambling onto the bonnet of Harold Wilsons car. The year was 1967 and she was a young anthropology student at Newnham College, Cambridge, taking part in a demonstration against involvement in the Vietnam war. The then prune minister was on a visit to the city.

"That wasn't me! I never wore an anorak with a hood) I had long, dark hair. That's a man in that photo... And I wasn't the first onto that car - I wasn't that radical," she protests.

In October Professor Richard, 54, started her job as the first

УМСЬКИЙfemale vice-chancellor with full executive powers in Cambridge's history.

Perhaps surprisingly, she recently revealed details of her protester's past to the university newsletter; fondly reminiscing about a policeman carefully grabbing her knees, lowering her from the car and putting her on the pavement.

She may have become part of the Establishment but the radical bent of the Kent-born academic remains. While many vice-chancellors are champing at the bit to start charging students tuition fees of up to £3,000 a year, Richard — who took a pay cut from her previous job as

Her bottom line is that if charging higher fees stops poor Students coming to Cambridge then she won't agree that the university should do it. But she could be persuaded if the university can afford to cover

the fees of all poor students with a bursary scheme.

So, one of the first tasks she has set herself is to work out whether Cambridge can afford a bursary scheme that would pay for every single bright student who is offered a place but would otherwise lack

the money to come.

Richard acknowledges that a lot more money needs to find its way into the university coffers if Cambridge - with a deficit of £10m - is to

"It is a moral imperative that this university should be open to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay," she insists.

Somewhere in a Cambridge backroom computers are silently doing the sums. How much does the university already pay for bursaries? How many students will need them? And what if the sums don't add up? "We will have to rethink."

You get the feeling that near the top other to-do list is making sure that Cambridge carries on being the "social escalator" she says it has been in the past few years — offering children from modest backgrounds and mediocre schools the route to a glittering life.

So what then about the question all universities are being posed: should Cambridge make lower admissions offers to such students than it makes to pupils who have been tutored at some of the country's top

УМСЬКИЙprivate schools?

Richard neatly sidesteps that one, though she does admit that there is an "intense" debate about admissions going on within the colleges. Last year, she points out, there were three times more applicants with three As at A-level than Cambridge had places for.

While A-levels will remain an "important" part of how dons choose students, she says the colleges are discussing "what other pieces of information might be use fully added to a student’s file so that we can take every opportunity to assess a student's talents".

Nonetheless, she says "academic excellence" will remain the main criterion for entry in any new admissions system.

The Cambridge tradition of interviewing most candidates, she predicts, will stay — despite criticism of its objectivity. But she is sceptical about US-style Scholastic Aptitude Tests (Sats), which are supposed to measure natural talent but for which students can be coached) Cambridge is piloting its own version of Sats but the Thinking Skills Assessment is still under review, being trialled on sixth-formers and first-year undergraduates.
