The
Daily Express is campaigning for a reduction in tuition fees; rent rebates for students unable to live in university accommodation; and greater use of hardship funds.
Campaigners said the sky-high salaries for university chiefs are a slap in the face for students already struggling to make ends meet with inadequate maintenance loans and all-time high tuition fees .
Third-year student Anastasia Christodoulou, 20, said: Students are being viewed as nothing but moneybags for universities, and it is unfair that they are the ones who have to feel the repercussions. I think it s such an unjustifiable amount of money. I m pretty sure the UEA vice-chancellor earns £271,000, which is nearly twice the salary of the Prime Minister. It s especially ridiculous that UEA has both staff and students that are struggling financially, and a student s union that has also been struggling.
