Article Abstract:
Under 50% of funding for the majority of universities in New Zealand is supplied by the government but there is great concern if the grant is cut even further the quality of higher education will decline. The authorities suggest using private funds to make up any shortfall and the more economical use of resources. Some observers suggest the introduction of private money may result in government educational aims no longer being met. The cost of further education to the students doubled between 1994-1999 and fees for tertiary education have also risen.

15 billion (pounds sterling) needed to hit targets
Article Abstract:
Universities UK has published a report claiming that UK universities will need almost 15 billion (pounds sterling) to meet the government's goal of 50 percent participation in higher education by 2010. The study cites aging infrastructure, lack of funding in research and teaching, and recruitment of more low-income people as areas of critical need. The article includes a statistical breakdown of the funding bid for 2003-2006.
