UCEA ARE WATCHING THIS TWEET SO I NEED EVERY UCU MEMBER TO RT IT. They haven’t put a pay offer on the table and are saying they will only consider doing so if we don’t call further action. Message to them - get real or see you on the picket line. #ucuRISING

I NEED EVERY UCU MEMBER TO RETWEET THIS We are hearing that Vice Chancellors are asking UCU members if they plan to take strike action next week. They have no right to do this and you do not have to answer them. They are hitting the panic button. Stand strong. #ucuRISING

After spending the afternoon going to several finance offices at @EdinburghUni ...still no trace of the stipend payment. Enjoy the memes instead. More to come.
Marina Ruiz Sánchez-Oro@MarinaRuizSO31 Oct 2022
The university @EdinburghUni owes me £1641 as of today. This is a great way to start the week. No PhD stipend paid this month, no expenses back, no replies from the finance department about where my money is. THIS IS NOT OKAY @ucuedinburgh

This tweep by Ms Hartley-Brewer,a gossip columnist of some sort, is extremely offensive to decent Christian folk.⬇️ The lack of respect for our Queen & her holy church is repulsive. Eating #Easter eggs on Good Friday is selfish & blasphemous. The UK continues its moral decline.😔

🕵🏼‍♀️looking for examples of how HE institutions are authentically engaging students in co-designing courses/programmes, using more than student reps and going beyond ‘giving feedback’. Anyone know of some positive practices to share? 🙌 TIA!! @cathybovill

I'm increasingly of the (unscientific, non-evidence-based, and possibly obvious) opinion that if students think a task is bullshit they are more likely to cheat
