Undoing Borders UoN

Student campaign to end the border regime at University of Nottingham

[Undoing Borders UoN @UndoBordersUoN]

BAE systems profits from misery and death worldwide. Shame on UoN for strengthening its relationship with them.

From supporting war machinery to enforcing the border regime, Universities are a cog in a very sinister system. We need radical change now.

[River Butterworth SU @UoNSU_Education]

Disappointed that the University continues to welcome weapons manufacturers with open arms.

Creating opportunities for Engineering students and researchers is vital, but partnerships with companies who profit from death and war should be unacceptable.

Now @SOAS is inflicting this very same colonialism on cleaning, admin staff, students, casualised staff, and FT lecturers. We need to dismantle the very marketised structures that treat students & staff like numbers. We need to #EndHostileEnvironment at all UK universities.

THREAD🧵

In today's @guardian, director of @SOAS Adam Habib was interviewed & had a lot (and we do mean A LOT) to say about migrant students, much of it very deluded with plans in line with SOAS longstanding global branding strategy.

@UnisNotBorders unpacks & critiques.⬇️

Sign this open letter by @peopleandplanet demanding Universities divest and break ties with companies which enforce the violent border regime!

A @TrentUni student is facing deportation due to an admin error. This is disgraceful and indicative of a system which exploits international students and abandons them.

Universities must put their students first and fight to stop this.

We’ve launched an (anonymous) survey with @UoNSU about the experience of international students at UoN - to better understand border policing and make the uni face up to the reality of their policies.

Please send around and share so we can get as many responses as possible!

[University of Nottingham Students' Union @UoNSU]

We recently passed a motion to Fight the Hostile Environment Policy. We've committed to researching the international student experience in order to better help you.

So if you're an international student - we want to hear from you! Complete the survey ⬇️

For their exemplary work this year... the Hostile Environment Awards 🏆👏

(1/2) We want to ensure Universities get proper recognition for their hard work upholding racist, classist and violent Hostile Environment policies, so we set up an award ceremony. Tweet this video at your University to nominate them for an award and...

🛢Barclays are the biggest investors in fossil fuel companies in Europe, investing over £100 billion since 2015. Yet our universities continue to do business with them.
❌ It’s time for UK universities to lock them out.

Food banks across the UK are struggling to cope with the shear volume of people in need.

💜As a national campaign Undoing Borders has already raised £2395 for food charities across the UK.

[Newham Community Project @newhamcommunity]

Queues for the foodbank were unexpectedly long tonight, for the first time we had to, reluctantly & sadly, turn people away. We need the help of the community to come together during these desperate times
