Does anyone know what building at @durham_uni is “DHE”? I’ve spent 45 minutes searching on the Uni website with zero success. Bonus points if you have a link to a map or website that actually has building codes.

NEARLY FIVE HUNDRED STAFF at risk of redundancy at Durham University. Fight back! Happy to have someone w/ access to better data check my numbers. I hope I’m wrong. 2/2

I only have salary data from 2022. If we take the median salary for all staff, add £5k for 2 yrs of pay rises plus 30% fringe, and divide that into £20m, Durham University is looking at laying off roughly 490 staff across this fiscal year & next. 1/2

Solidarity to Newcastle Uni colleagues and friends - this is very worrying and will surely not be the last. @ucuatdurham members - you have just had an email about a consultative ballot (a vote on holding a ballot) at Durham. Please vote in it!

Newcastle University announcing 300 FTE redundancies. Come to the EGM tomorrow (Wed 1pm) and as we saw this coming, our ballot opened yesterday - vote as soon as it arrives (by post). We will be fighting this, and join forces with the other two campus unions UNITE and UNISON

I love when I have American students in my class when I do an exercise that lets them realize how much time we are workloaded to grade their work. After they pick their jaws back up, they comment, “Well THAT explains a lot!” 10min/1k words ain’t a lotta time!

"You can pretend that falafel and hummus and zaatar are your ancient cuisines. But in the recesses of your being, you will always feel the sting of this epic forgery." Palestinian writer and activist Susan Abulhawa delivered this passionate speech at the Oxford Union.

This seems like a good time to emphasize the relationship between the clemency power and Biden's legacy. As Mark Osler and I noted in September in a NY Times op-ed, Biden's pardon/commutation record is grim right now -- a historically low grant rate. /1

Hi @AbdullaAndalusi, we urge you to pull out of speaking at tomorrows Durham union society ‘debate’. There should be no debate on genocide. They are using your attendance to legitimise their event, sharing a platform which is not even remotely balanced.

@dr_seminnis Been trying. I faxed my expat absentee FL ballot a week ago & sent a follow-up query last night. It’s usually acknowledged in 24hrs. Not this time! A fellow Floridian expat had the same problem. Officially worried…

I sent my Florida ballot a week ago via @FVAP. No receipt acknowledgement yet & my county has not received it. I’ve *always* gotten receipt acknowledgement w/in 24hrs in the past. Getting worried!

@yuanyi_z @_Mc_eM_ My workload tariff for a FT PhD student is about 38hrs/yr. Half that for PT. I can’t fathom how I could meet weekly & also give feedback on any writing! Institutional expectation is meeting once per month. None of it sufficient for proper supervision 😡.

This is helpful information about the Oxford DPhil case. Her supervisor never raised more than Minor Concerns in the termly supervision reports, and you wouldn't generally expect someone to fail Confirmation twice without prior red flags being raised by the supervisor 1/

I appreciate some of the questions raised by the public after @BBCNews piece. Since I believe this is a public interest matter, I have decided to share the supporting statement of @QueensCollegeOx for the appeals process. I hope this answers some of the questions.

I was going to sell my cheap lamp I had in my old office. Nope. This new Waterside office has auto on/off lights and I keep ending up in the dark! (Somehow I think there’s an institutional metaphor in that 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️😂)
