With Chris Pope Glees is the author of When Students Turn to Terror: Terrorist and Extremist Activity on British Campuses Published by the right wing Social Affairs Unit in Autumn 2005. At over 100 pages this is a longish report claiming to find evidence of Islamist, animal liberation and British National Party 'terrorism' on UK campuses. The report is intellectually worthless and simnply a propaganda tool of use in encouragin the suppression ofg dissent in the Universities. The basis of the evidence that there is 'terrorist activity' is simply that people who have been arrested under anti terrorism legislation previously attended university. On this basis there is also evidcen of terrorist activity in schools, nurseries and even in mothers wombs, sicne all terrorists were once presumably there.

Here is a quote on the 'dangers of the universities:

Instead of encouraging students to reflect on the values and virtues of liberal democracy, universities may be teaching them subjects or theoretical tools for understanding the world - Marxism for example - which could encourage them to believe Britain and other Western states are in terminal decline. Moving from campus to Mosque, students convinced by their dons might gain further inspiration from radical mullahs. (Anthony Glees and Chris Pope When Students Turn to Terror: Terrorist and Extremist Activity on British Campuses Social Affairs Unit, 2005, p. 15.)
