Time was (not so long ago) when many Universities who ran archaeology degrees also had their own field units who undertook commercial projects as well as teaching. So what happened to all of these? Why did universities get rid of the field operations? I cannot say that I have been impressed by the current trend for university archaeology departments to cut themselves free of the field units. I have notice my local universities have cut back a great deal on their archaeology courses. Is this the way things are going to go with students having to pay a considerable sum of money to get a degree universities are focusing on where the money is ie foreign students and degrees that give people a high earning profession at the end of the course. Bye Bye to learning for the sake of learning for any but the financial elitexx(
