This news about QMUL is really bad (they're offering extra incentives to take voluntary severance if you're in Linguistics or English)

Hot off the presses! LMS Asst Prof Luke Lu's new Open Access publication in Language in Society: "Who's being elitist? A debate about the enregisterment of Singlish" cambridge.org/core/journals/…

President of Student's Union in Lancaster, "I have students coming in saying they can't study because they haven't eaten in three days" Fiona Bruce, "People are telling you they haven't eaten in three days?" President, "I have hundreds of stories.. We have a food bank on campus.. We have a supper club where we give our free meals to over 100 students every Thursday... The only hot meal they'll have that week" "Students are the future of the economy.. If we can't eat, we can't study, if we can't afford our rent we can't live here.. The government does not prioritise students and it hasn't in the last decade" #BBCQT @LancasterSU @CerysEvans

[reminder and please share🙌🏻] don’t forget to join us either onsite or online at this wonderful in-conversation event with Prof Adrian Holliday at ICIS UCL on 21st Feb! More details and free tickets: eventbrite.co.uk/e/neo-essentia…

Great couple of days discussing “Language and Onward Migration” at the @__BAAL @CambridgeUP workshop. Thank you @APatino_soton @VallyLytra and @pkaratsareas for organising. Great to be together with the research team and to meet new colleagues too! #sociolinguistics #migration

FYI: Linguistics under threat at the University of Kent: Colleagues and friends: Linguistics is going to be shut down at the University of Kent (UK). Some context below, but please take a look at this petition, consider signing, and share widely.… dlvr.it/T2ZTbb

This is a turning point in UK higher education. A financially viable department cut in order to pay for the expansion of subjects that get more high-fees international students. If this is allowed to happen, many many unis will follow. Please speak out!

Some colleagues and I are thinking about proposing a panel on online/ social media language work/ wordsmithery at the ALAPP conference, to be held by PolyU HK this December 17-19. Also thinking about doing a special issue. In case anyone is interested, please get in touch:)!
