Students appeal to Rowan Williams to end tuition fee protest

From here:

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has been called on to help end a dispute between a university and students who are continuing three-week sit-in at the University of Kent in protest at rises in tuition fees…..

The students have now written to the Archbishop, Rowan Williams, in the hope that as a visitor to the university he will act as mediator to help resolve the impasse.

With his bent for compulsive Hegelian dialectic, Rowan, after his spectacular success at uniting divided Anglicans, is the obvious choice for mediating a squabble about tuition fees. Or he could preach a sermon; either way, the five sit-in students would have to disperse or risk boredom induced catatonia.
