Several highlights made in pencil, including: [p. 7] “Numbers and eligibility 31. Throughout our Report we have assumed as an axiom that courses of higher education should be available for all those who are qualified by ability and attainment to pursue them and who wish to do so. What type of education they should get an in what kind of institution are questions we consider later on; and the criterion by which capacity is to be judged is clearly a question on which there may be a variety of opinions. But on the general principle as we have stated it we hope there be little dispute.”; [p. 26] statistics in table referring to “Full time students in universities: by faculty and level Great Britain 1961/2”; [p. 48 – also earmarked] “In principle, the problem of estimating the number of places required can be approached in two ways: by considering what supply of different kinds of highly educated persons will be required to meet the needs of the nation, or by considering what the demand for places in higher educations is likely to be. We have decided that the second approach presents the sounder basis for estimates.”
