About this episode

President and Vice-chancellor of London School of Economics Larry Kramer discusses the impact of President Trump on US universities as the "effective dismantling" of American higher education. On the UK university funding crisis, Kramer tells Bloomberg's Caroline Hepker and Stephen Carroll revenue needs to increase from all sources including student fees but what is happening in the US is likely to help UK universities.
