last day of calm working conditions before schools out…

Very well deserved 👏👏

This is utterly embarrassing from the presenter. Good on Mick, “Richard, why don’t you interview yourself.”

Repeatedly spouting the same nonsense and talking over someone is not grilling an interviewee.

festive reset 🎄

Duncan is underplaying his accomplishments here.
Having three books, 21 published papers and four supervised PhDs within six years of your PhD is outstanding. Not too long ago he'd have been offered a Chair for this sort of stuff, not left to burn out on precarious contracts.

We've been on our new UWS campus at Lanarkshire for a few years now but I still frequently stop in my tracks to admire how lovely it is, particularly when it's all festive and glittery😍 What a wee treat of a place to come to work ❤️

'Today is a historic day. This is the largest national demo our union has ever held. University bosses thought scenes like this were impossible. They were wrong'

Why boundaries are important, and why in academia it's hard to have them: A thread. #UCUstrike

It starts with the PhD.
PhDs are training in co-dependency, and a masterclass in hooking your self-worth so closely to your career that you become entirely defined by it.
