Abstract
The idea of university engagement for the public good has been prominent in the discourses surrounding higher education in recent years. However, the reality is that universities compete with one another for places in a hierarchy of league tables. Higher education is now part of the hyper-capitalistic growth of mass production of goods and services involving mass distribution and consumption through consumer networks.
