Goldsmiths Values

Because Goldsmiths should be a shining light in the darkness.

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

At Goldsmiths we haven't updated our position since last year – so last year's video explainer still applies. Despite #goldstrike we won't budge. It’s the end-game now, and we're cashing in as fast as we can. Don't you scruffy lunatics understand the basics of capitalism?

Education is under threat

Oh what, just because a few staff – WHO WE DIDN'T BLOODY NEED – get the boot, and students – WHO CAN BLOODY AFFORD IT – get charged more, we're not supposed to get a TINY RAISE for our HARD WORK?

Just a reminder of where @FCorner's priorities lie when it comes to spending students' tuition fees. Check out the text in red at the bottom right corner of this pic.👇

Never mind the kickbacks – nice to see some supportive student art for a change, showing appreciation for the visionary leadership of Goldsmiths warden, Frances Corner @FCorner.

Does @GoldsmithsUoL pay for managers' gas-guzzlers? The same people that declared a climate emergency in 2019? TaxPayers' Alliance: 'It's hypocritical for chauffeur-driven scholars on six-figure salaries to be bemoaning budget cuts & campaigning on climate change' @GoldsmithsUCU

Reminds me of the other day when someone asked Goldsmiths warden @fcorner, "What's it like to have geniuses on your staff?" She said, "Those poloneck-wearing frauds will be existentially out of a job pretty soon." Then showed her teeth in a big smile ❤️ #HappyWomensDay #UCUstrike

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

Love my team!!!! @goldsmithsuol managers bought me this Jag as I've been a bit down since the fraud investigation. Parked up – and LOL someone told me that building is the "student union"! Hope nobody thinks I've been chatting to those wasters 😅

These tools show teachers’ days are numbered. Soon all lectures will be recorded and all classes and assignments AI-powered – meaning 0% waste on staff and 100% profits for management and shareholders. Miro? MiROI more like. #UCUstrike

When asked, “How does it feels to marry a genius?” Marie Curie said: “Go ask my husband.”
From the beginning of the 20th century, her example has enabled the role of women in science to be improved, but more generally in the world of work.

🔥💪✊🎉👏👏👏A FANTASTIC victory for Short Course Tutors at @GoldsmithsUoL against the exploitative practices of 'uberfication' by senior management. If lawyers are the only people SMT will listen to, then this restructure will prove very costly indeed.

[Goldsmiths SC Tutors @goldsctutors]

We have some good news! We have won our case with @GoldsmithsUoL, in recognition of our worker status and rights ✊✊✊ this is a real victory for casualised workers in HE. Thank you to you all, @LauraFoundation, @GoldsmithsUCU and @LeighDay_Law who made this possible.

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

At Goldsmiths we managers don't need games to get that assassin feeling. We just take a look at our personnel list and ... RAT-A-TAT-TAT... whack a couple every morning. See you in Valhalla, punks.

Teachers, can't you see the writing on the wall? You'll be replaced by AI apps with really shit names very soon.

You can spot the typo... but what about errors and vulnerabilities in your code? 🔍

[David Labi @david_labi]

Fight goes on, for teachers/staff fucked by inhuman managers, & for students seeking refunds for classes missed due to managerial shambles. Education is no commodity & centres of critical thought are core to functioning democracies!

[David Labi @david_labi]

Update re. my status at @goldsmithsuol, after legal advice I paid fees & have been quickly let back on. Hard decision bc I support #ucustrikes & @GoldFeesStrike but not at expense of MA & can only agitate from within. Feel for intl. students w much more at stake #Solidarity

Yes a website page we've had to correct because of inaccuracies and errors it has been riddled with. We've had to do your work for you - FREE of charge... as apparently you are in a 'deficit' and can't afford to pay.

Goldsmiths record on queer stuff is exemplary – as a look at our website shows. We've handpicked stock imagery to showcase our commitment to diversity. If you want to learn queer history, just come chat to us managers 🌈

All this fuss about pensions is useless. We all know that in a few short years planet earth will resemble a large crême brûlée.

Which reminds me of the wonderful meal we had at the managers' club last night.

#UCUstrikes @GoldFeesStrike @GoldsmithsUCU @UCU

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

Don't worry the blood is spilling within our elite managers' cocktail bar as well. Oh no wait – that's @fcorner's Bloody Mary from this morning! Better order a new shagpile.

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

Totally unfair and one-sided. We managers HAVE compromised with unions. We've ALLOWED them to exist.

And meaningful dialogue? We're talking about university intellectuals here guys 😂

[Goldsmiths Values @GoldsmithValues]

All the flak @goldsmithsuol are getting shows people don't take time to check our site. Clearly we're about opening minds. As long as they're not critical of our management decisions. Oh and diversity too – except in study topics and personnel.
