Almost two years since the passing of Jim (James) Shields, a Glasgow alumnus and legendary teacher & scholar at @warwickuni @AstonUniversity An honour to join others who knew & worked with Jim in this podcast to mark the occasion, led by Brian Sudlow youtube.com/watch?v=SdcOOKcc…

If you can sing mass karaoke in different languages, you have nothing to fear in your oral exams. Students, it made us happy to see you happy at last night's biggest ever (200) @UofGSMLC Christmas event. Thanks for the beautiful venue to staff @GUUnion & our own Teresa Newman

I was stuck for a musical intro to today's lecture on culture & national histories. Last night's excellent @tenementals gig introduced me to this song written 1933 in German in a concentration camp, a Republican Spanish Civil War anthem, still circulating youtube.com/watch?v=FaCKKMDR…

Now filming outside the Hetherington Building, 'SMLC The Movie'. Cover for a secret production, according to the rumours a major film starting with 'R' and ending in 'Unning Man'.

Waiting for the benefits of Brexit.

Largest @UofGSMLC Walk & Talk yet, punctuated by Surrealist experiments in this centenary year of the movement. Public reading of @Afrosurreal's Manifesto in front of Thomas Carlyle. Automatic paper creature (anon.). Lovely to see new & returning students meeting each other.

Thrilled that our poet, colleague & friend @bertony_louis has begun his Fellowship at Harvard University. This follows Bertony's @APF_IIE Fellowship @UofGSMLC 22-23. You can join his first talk online 25 September @HutchinsCenter hutchinscenter.fas.harvard.e…📷Neil Miller @uofglibrary

A warm welcome to all our @UofGlasgow students settling into flats & residences. This one of the many epic views opposite Murano in Ruchill Park, where there are also deer, basketball/frisbee golf/football, and one of Glasgow's several Parkruns for runs, walks & volunteering.

Beautiful day for sharing slides with room of open day visitors to langs & cultures at Glasgow. Baroness Coussins on language positivity, the personal & international case for languages from our own Principal, award winning teachers, social life & our comfy study space #TeamUofG

Hugely looking forward to welcoming 100 or so pupils and their teachers to our taster sessions in languages and cultures this Thursday at the University of Glasgow. Thank you @Mlegazpi22 for organising and to all staff involved @UofGSMLC #MFLTwitterati
