Adrian Furnham ("The petty meanness is bitterly recalled, but the kindness is repaid", 14 May) refers to university prospectuses showing off semi-attractive buildings and ignoring the "Stalinist Sixties architecture that surrounds them". Surely, "Stalinist" here should mean the glorious "wedding-cake" structures of the 1930s, such as Moscow State University, rather than the concrete blocks of the Brezhnevite Sixties?
