All TVs are flatscreen. The TV license costs more than a TV.
I'm sure the new student accomodation is overpriced, but that's market effects not the presence of TVs. The real culprit is the government trying to run universities as profit centres. The policy isn't "joined-up": we're probably going to see further crackdowns on student visas at the same time as European funding is withdrawn. I'm waiting for the first redbrick university to go bankrupt..
