Students plan protests over course cuts at universities

HUNDREDS of students will hold demonstrations today over controversial proposals to cut courses at two of Scotland's leading universities.

A protest will be held at Glasgow University as the institution’s ruling Court meets to decide on a raft of threatened subjects.

The university has already stepped back from some of its more radical proposals, but there is still uncertainly over nursing, Slavonic studies and a pioneering drug centre.
