Fees-raising artist Perry takes role as chancellor of UAL

TURNER Prize winner and pottery artist Grayson Perry was appointed chancellor of a London university yesterday as education campaigners attacked his support for high fees.

Mr Perry will take up the position as part of the University of the Arts London (UAL) management team on August 1 after having been a governor for the last five years. 

But students from the famed institution were not happy, accusing Mr Perry of voting in favour of tuition fee increases.
