You didn't happen to write the letter yourself, did you?
Whatever the case, I think it's overly dramatic. Phrases like "tearing the heart out of the city" are pretty ludicrous, given the amount of money and opportunities both universities have brought to the area, as well as the knock-on effects such as the improvement of the so-called 'cultural quarter' and the city's increasing academic profile.
However, I think Abertay's current threat to the Council is nothing more than that - an attempt to frighten them into giving the University what they want. I believe that moving Abertay to either Perth or Kirkcaldy would only be a backwards step and wouldn't do them any favours on any level.
