Dr Andrew Hass was recently interviewed for BBC Radio 4’s ‘What is the point of…’ programme, looking at universities. The programme was first broadcast on 15.8.12, and is also available on the BBC website (this link may not work if you are not in the UK).

His blog entries on the nature of the university initially drew the programme makers’ attention to Dr Hass’ views: What is a University for? and The Role of the University Amplified.
