Major failure of free speech policies at @SheffieldUni.
I'm tired, heartbroken & angry. A few of us (Politics educators/researchers) were organising a teach-in on Gaza supported by @sheffielducu. A teach-in for our students where we were talking about our research on Palestine & related topics (1/n)

Students shouldn't have to pay tuition fees this year. Or next year. Or any year.
That's because education is a right, not a commodity.
Four years ago I took my student loan statement to Parliament to make this point 👩🏽🎓

Some universities provide flu jabs for staff - good.
They should also provide covid vaccinations - Covid is airborne and it carries more risk.
In the absence of regular covid jabs for everyone, unions should be demanding Covid jabs as a health & safety issue.

Academia is terrible for flying half way around the world for short periods of time in the name of networking because it has decided that this is an essential part of building a career.
Not only is it catastrophic for the planet, it's exclusionary.
We need to rethink.
“We fly lots, & we say that we shouldn't,” says @DV_Jonas, a transport geographer at @ucl & the first author of the latest study. “We are hypocrites.”
Climate leadership means walking the walk, academics need to put their house in order & lead by example

The Berkeley Repertory Theatre (Bay Area, CA) has mandatory masked events on Sundays and Tuesdays.
This is inclusiveness. This is community care.
Vulnerable people deserve to experience life, too.

"Non-academic staff are now also being targeted, with 400 non-academic staff in Professional Services being cut" -
Having previously worked in PS at Hallam, it's gross that the university thinks its teaching and research can function properly with such huge cuts to PS staff 😢

Ha! This is brilliantly rendered (no need to be nervous AT ALL, John!)
I love the description of Sheffield.
1/A bit nervous as I've not shared for #TradSongTues before, but here's my own take on The Dalesman's Litany;
No Roud number (it's a c1900 poem by FW Moorman) but firmly trad now, it names Hull/Halifax/Leeds/Bradford/Keighley/Sheffield/Barnsley + suburbs too
