✨hey there we’re the philosophy society at mmu, here to show you that philosophy extends further than some boring book *cough* critique of pure reason *cough*🤭

[Paul Giladi @DrPaulGiladi]

Huge thanks to Hamnah for her outstanding organisation of the 2023 Undergrad Philosophy Conference - very, very proud of you!

The event was a resounding success and a wonderful way to start the new year

Planning for the 2024 conference will start next week - it’s how we roll 😎

[MMUPhilSoc @ManMetPhilSoc]

the phil soc 22/23 is in full support of @DrPaulGiladi

we can’t wait for another year in the philosophy department ✨✨✨

[MMUPhilSoc @ManMetPhilSoc]

it’s absolutely shocking that there is a demise of the arts and humanities…not everyone is skilled in subjects like STEM, so many of us thrive in the arts and humanities,the government need to do better

[Mary Peace @maryvpeace]

English lit degree at Sheffield Hallam is being “suspended.” University responding to Government who will no longer fund degrees where 60% students don’t end up in “highly skilled” jobs within 6 months.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

#InternationalWomensDay is not for celebrating. It is for protesting against and raising awareness about the fact that people are still being oppressed or treated differently because of their gender.

[UMUCU @UM_UCU]

As far as the eye can see ✊

#OneOfUsAllOfUs

[UMUCU @UM_UCU]

At @OfficialUoM the average male employee is paid 17.2% more than the average woman employee.

This is higher than the national gender pay gap (15.4%) and the sector-wide HE pay gap (15.9%).

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Bill Gates emits 4000x as much as I do. David Geffen, 8000x. This is the collective future of humanity we are talking about here and it is enraging.
