St Andrews Student Solidarity Network

[Save our Scottish Universities @SOScotUnis]

Save our Scottish Universities is a new campaign group created to fight impending crisis, with 3 demands:

1. Fund universities in full for tuition of Scottish and UK students
2. End the Marketisation of Universities
3. Minimise cross-funding that exploits international students

[Save our Scottish Universities @SOScotUnis]

Scottish universities are in crisis. With up to £100million of cuts announced by the Scottish Government (source: BBC News), and inflationary pressures growing, time is running out.

[NUS Scotland @NUSScotland]

📉Universities & colleges are systematically underfunded and it's students & staff that pay the price.

📈Principals' salaries are inflated beyond reason, a symptom of an overly marketised system.

🙌We're grateful to @GlasgowPam for raising the devastating budget cuts colleges & universities are faced with.

Students & staff deserve better than being underfunded & undervalued.

Add your voice and tell the Scottish Government to #StoptheCuts

UK HE is in turmoil. While all involved contend with the complexity, we should not lose sight of the colleagues &students most directly affected.

Our branch voted to keep fighting for a better HE in any way we can, and to look out for & look after staff&students here & anywhere.

Obviously something is wrong with scottish universities. The answer isn't the reintroduction of fees.

The Scottish Government must #StopTheCuts and fund Scottish universities properly.

[Calum Ross @CalumRoss23]

International students are more likely than Scots to be offered places to study in most subject areas at the nation’s top universities. In many courses, we found the offer rate for overseas students was double the rate for Scots at Edinburgh University. https://t.co/wBvBODiiyO

📺Last night NUS President @elliebgomersall was on ITV talking about our new report: Broke Students, Broken System.

The current system puts profit over people. The Scottish Government must read this report and act - we need change now.

Wrote about the horrendous plans to take over the only cinema in St Andrews and how it's part of a wider trend of private investment ridding our towns of cultural spaces - for @Scottishleftrev

Heba Zagout was one of the most talented artists in Gaza Strip.

Here is her work ⤵️

I just found out she was killed, along with children. May her memory be a blessing
