Principal of University of Edinburgh, Sir Peter Mathieson flummoxed when asked his pay.
A 7.5% pay rise. Earning more than the Scottish First Minister and UK PM combined but still "not quite sure"
Meanwhile staff face £140m cuts @ucuedinburgh@UCUScotland#ucu#StopTheCuts
Universities across the UK are closing courses, cutting options and reducing maintenance support. International student visa changes are making it worse. @BBCNews reported yesterday.
Rising costs, shrinking enrolments and short-sighted immigration policies are creating a perfect storm.
Staff and students are paying the price.
We must #ProtectEducationNow
In a world of transactional relationships, we must educate and empower young girls to build connections based on love and mutual respect, not transactions. True liberation is rooted in equality and independence. #InternationalWomensDay
@AndreasSeraphi1 Κάποιοι συγκεκριμένοι, καθώς και η τότε διευθύντρια, με είχαν βοηθήσει, αν και εκείνη βρισκόταν υπό πίεση από το ΔΣ και τους οργανωμένους γονείς εξαιτίας των πολιτικών που επιθυμούσε να εφαρμόσει στο σχολείο
Calling for #equalityforallgenders in #UKacademia on this #internationalwomensday. Women make up 51% of all academic staff, but only 24% are professors and earn 15.9% less than their male counterparts. We need fair pay and equal opportunities for all genders in academia!
