I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: art history is not *just* the history of art. It’s the history of everything taught through art + architecture + visual culture. It’s history plus not history minus. @nottsarthistory @UoNArts #waystostudyhistory

I've signed a motion of solidarity with university staff who are under threat of redundancy, tabled by my friend @ClaudiaWebbe
University staff have gone above and beyond this past year and do not deserve to experience job insecurity.

Worth a read. An extract: "policymakers should abandon the use of graduate employment data to measure higher education value and quality as this misrecognises graduate employment as a causal graduate outcome rather than a descriptive graduate functioning"

The moment British Universities started to rely on student fees is when their recruitment began to determine what disciplines exist as departments. This has been a decades long process coming to fruition 1/7

We are deeply concerned to hear the announcement about @UniShefArch only weeks after we protested the similar threat to @ArchaeologyChe1. We have been in emergency discussions since Wednesday & will continue to oppose these threats & support our colleagues across the UK.

Sheffield’s archaeology department has a long and proud history of world-leading research and inspiring teaching. So many mentors, friends and colleagues are products of Sheffield. This would be a massive blow to the discipline.

Excellent motion written by @MichaelRosenYes on the @officestudents proposed funding cuts for the arts in HE for @GoldsmithsUCU. He's proposing that other branches follow suit, so plagiarise away! Link to text here: facebook.com/michael.rosen.5…

Plans for 50% funding cut to arts subjects at universities ‘catastrophic’ theguardian.com/education/20…
The Government wants to impose a catastrophic 50% funding cut to arts subjects at higher education (HE) level in England. I've joined the @Public_Campaign for the Arts to tell @GavinWilliamson: arts education matters. Will you join too? campaignforthearts.org/petit…
