Record Windfall Can't Change UK Postgrad Tune

The University of Oxford has received a multi-million-pound gift for postgraduate humanities study aimed at the world's most promising scholars amid concern that public funding cuts could make such courses the preserve of elite institutions. The donation - which will ultimately amount to around £26 million - was made by Mica Ertegun, a renowned interior designer and the widow of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun. Expected eventually to create at least 35 scholarships for humanities graduates at Oxford every year, the gift is the most generous for the study of the humanities in the institution's 900-year history. However, some observers fear that cuts to universities' public funding will mean that only elite institutions with access to substantial donations and endowment income will be able to fully support postgraduate provision.
