The 21 Group does its utmost to defend right of women to speak up about sexual harassment at university

This is an upsetting & courageous article from @VarsityUK

Nothing ever changes at Cambridge, despite the fine words of the men & women in charge

Dozens of professors face the axe at Teesside University with cuts possible as soon as next month.

Management claims strong finances yet staff are being pushed out at speed.

You don't strip decades of experience overnight without consequences. Read the full story ⬇️

On tutorials

Over 50% of Oxbridge tutorials are delivered by grad students, post-docs & freelancers, who work for low pay

The real function of tutorials?

Economic — it trickles some money down to those at the bottom of HE

Unrepresented academic wins at Employment Tribunal against a university represented by KC & Hon Fellow of @StJohnsOx

Nottingham Uni discriminated against Dr Saad on grounds of race

Academics can often succeed without representation as University processes are rarely lawful

[21group @21percentgroup]

Academics mistreated by their University often say they lack resources to go to Employment Tribunal

Peak Ong was cleaner dismissed by Aberystwyth Uni

Her first language isn't English. She represented herself (with friend) at Tribunal

She defeated a barrister

She won £264,442

Could it be that this is a very 'profitable' model for orthodox recruiters & "sourcing" companies - downplaying your value - so you use mass job boards/CV capture platforms (which our data shows is not a winning strategy to secure work)..? 🤔🤯

There's a lot of negative feelings and lack of confidence over CVs/expertise profile among our global community, due to the systemic issues and abuses in the labour market & poor education from institutions for #AltAc career development. This shows how valuable your CV really is!

“There are no jobs in HE & trauma of being made redundant so soon after returning from cancer treatment has ruined my self-worth

I've been humiliated in my professional life & I don’t think I'll ever be able to be in the same room as former colleagues"

We keep saying we're a "global community career development resource platform", but what does that mean and are we truly globally accessible (i.e., our platform and resources)?

YES! 23K+ users since 2022, and growing - come join us!

The collapse of UK universities isn’t inevitable -- it’s a political choice

Other countries manage; here, government is actively burning higher education to the ground

We’re reaching the end of accessible, nationwide research & teaching — and those in power barely care

[Josh Mcloughlin @JoshMcloughlin]

Me for @Telegraph (£) on why academics are leaving UK higher ed:

1000s of jobs & courses cut
Pensions cut
Learning politicised
Low paid, precarious work
REF & Kafkaesque bureaucracy
AI undermining teaching and research
Dependence on itnl student fees
1/2

Voice of Victim

"I asked a senior administrator what’s causing the University budget deficit

'Research & teaching,' he said, 'both lose money, not financially viable'

I said, 'Funny, then, we weren't losing money in the past when central administration was half the size' "

[21group @21percentgroup]

International student in UK university says: “It's trafficking”

- Cross-border movement by misrepresentation
- Debt
- Labour exploitation under constrained legal status
- Intermediaries extract commissions

Yes it's institutionally sanctioned trafficking

Sheffield Hallam University need £26.6m cost savings

It bet big on London with satellite campus in Brent's Cross -- now enormous & costly white elephant

Another vanity project, another (just departed) VC driven by hubris

Jobs are being cut in Sheffield

@RDC1987 This is also why we intend on offering Trauma-informed consultancy to employers/institutions. This kind of thoughtless and callous behaviour is so easily preventable, and begins to look like systemic/structural violence (if not addressed appropriately).

[Dr. Rosalie Clarke @RDC1987]

Sounds very similar to my own experience at NTU connected with the murder of one of my best friends in the 1st year. Very traumatic & damaging. Also in Nottingham. HE truly has become soul-less. So sorry this happened to friends & family.

[21group @21percentgroup]

Grace O'Malley-Kumar's belongings were thrown out by Nottingham University after she was murdered by paranoid schizophrenic

This isn't a failure of process -- it's a failure of humanity

Universities must set clear standards of conduct & ethics to staff

That quote in the top right? The one where our vice chancellor said that we can no longer expect a comfortable place to work and a light workload in exchange for no pay? Yeah, she actually said that.

[Dr. Rosalie Clarke @RDC1987]

😱 Why do we bother..?

[21group @21percentgroup]

Educational expert "Dr" Ann Limb falsified her academic credentials

21 Group has written to @LucyCavColl Cambridge asking for corrections to 'List of Fellows'

More to come out about her role in privatisation of 'City & Guilds'

College should now act
