And full time academics are also working many more hours they are contracted to do. Drivers include increasing student numbers, without added resource, and a need to maintain research activity despite a massive teaching load so as not to be perceived as a second class citizen.
This is absolutely true in terms of full and part time staff and students. Universities so often try to cut costs without realising the time, cost and expertise good teaching costs.
