	Tuesday 12 October 2010 at 10.30pm on BBC Two Presented by Jeremy Paxman Tonight we place the future of higher education in the spotlight. Business Secretary Vince Cable has given his approval to Lord Browne's report which would allow an unlimited rise in tuition fees in England's universities, describing the proposals as "fair and affordable". And the government is considering asking all but the poorest graduates in England to pay a "market" rate of interest on their student loans, instead of the low interest rate which they currently pay. Tonight, we will be discussing what such changes would mean and how they are likely to alter the whole landscape of the university experience with the Universities Minister David Willetts and higher education stakeholders including students, university vice-chancellors and academics. Our Economics Editor Paul Mason will be crunching the numbers on the plan to scrap the current £3,290 fees cap and replace it with a free market. And Political Editor Michael Crick will be totting up which coalition MPs are likely to back the changes, and which not. We also have an extraordinary film in which Paul Mason revisits Gary, Indiana, to report on how the poorest city in America missed out on the money and the jobs, and why it is a symbol of the intractable problems gripping the world's biggest economy. And we will be speaking to the Man Booker winner just after the announcement about who has won the prestigious literary prize. Join Jeremy at 10.30pm on BBC Two.
