#HigherEducation has poured money into infrastructure & resources. It needs to pivot into pouring money into people - I don't mean snr leadership. PhDs need robust funding & lecturers need pay restoration to keep academic careers sustainable.

University: A place where Vice-Chancellors earn ten times more than faculty, and PhD students struggle to get by.

#Students can also check-in with University health and well-being services, or your personal tutor can help you navigate a range of other support services from academic to pastoral.

With shorter days in the northern hemisphere, now is good time to take stock of your mental and physical health. Vitamin D stores tend to decline over the winter, just as seasonal work and study obligations are building up. See the NHS advice on VitD here: https://t.co/P18rEtg2PD

Excellent news regarding USS & pensions. Now let's keep up the pressure on pay restoration, safe workloads, and closing wage gaps in further & #HigherEducation.

🚨BREAKING

We can confirm that USS is £7.4bn in surplus, and we are on track to restore  UCU members pensions and significantly reduce the cost of their monthly contributions

We’ll use the coming months to ensure employers fulfil their obligations

Your action did this 💪

[Dr Anna L. Morgan @ImpecuniousPhD]

'Cruel & disgusting' is the way #highereducation exploits the unpaid overtime of lecturers, devalues pay, and threatens pensions.

Carry on like this, and only the most priviledged individuals will be able to afford a career as a university lecturer.

#sustainable #Careers

[UCU @ucu]

Tory MP Bill Wiggin has just attacked us in Parliament, calling the marking boycott “cruel and disgusting.”

Our members are fighting for fair pay and for the future of universities.

We won’t take any lectures from an Old Etonian who makes £200k+ from his second job.
