Birkbeck Student Uprising ✊

🪩 What a night!! Massive thank you to everyone who made it down on Saturday and to all of our incredible poets and performers! @JuliaBell @Anthony1983 @hhgsparkles Thank you for making it a night of joy, rage and hope. Together we will #SaveBirkbeck 💪

🔥#TWT23 PROGRAMME🔥 Packed with the best speakers, teachers, artists & opportunities to build a better world: bit.ly/TWT23Programme Whether you want reading groups, panels or workshops to take you to new levels, we’ve got you! 🎟️: bit.ly/TWT23

🚨NEW: Birkbeck senior management are hiring lecturers on hourly paid, fixed-term contracts to cover the work of permanent staff who they have just laid off. Shame on you, @BirkbeckUoL. This is the very worst of the sector.

Birkbeck Management and UCU to issue a joint statement urging both sides to "reengage to resolve the dispute as quickly as possible". Birkbeck joins Cambs, Sussex, Exeter, York, Heriot-Watt and LSHTM lining up against UCEA hardliners. Branch pressure works.

📢Calling all Birkbeck students! It's time to demand that SMT #SettleTheDispute - ✍️sign and share this open letter demanding accountability and an end to their silence! 🔥 Our Staff's Working Conditions Are Our Learning Conditions 🔥 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

I am a final year student at Edinburgh University. This week I was told that due to industrial action, my 10k word dissertation will probably not be marked...ever. I've been talking to staff & students - a quick 🧵 on the *utter chaos* going on at Edinburgh right now.
