/^t/To say nothing more of an issue of the regular, substantial aids which should be granted by the government, on the other hand, the universities should be able to self-finance themselves. Above all, a resolution is needed which would allow the universities to become more autonomous and to eliminate their traditional stiffness, so that they could raise money they are in short of, in great part, by themselves. In a large measure, this could be obtained by levying on students tuition charges. Payments should be required of full-time and part-time students alike. They would have to pay fees and living costs, but every student should be guaranteed to receive from the local authority of the place where he or she lives a personal grant or a loan, high enough to cover their full costs including lodging and food. This would be necessary since in case fees are introduced, many students coming from poor families would not be able to afford studying. As far as loans are concerned, these would have to be payed back in instalments by a student after his or her graduation and taking up regular employment.
