Defend degrees, defend jobs These cuts wipe out courses, programmes, shared knowledge, teaching and research excellence and a whole learning community, which has been decades in the making Talk to your tutors, lecturers, and professors Demand the Schools, Faculties, and University end these cuts Join upcoming meetings, letters, and petitions
These cuts and how they have been implemented undo what it means to do university. The academic community should own the courses, not some external consultant.
Students & Staff need to have a meaningful participation for a university to be a university. #SaveHE #UKHE
Nous: QMUL paid at least £435,000 to the Australian consultancy firm NOUS NOUS has a track record of cutting programmes Programme cuts lead to job losses and department closures Staff & students kept in the dark QMUL acknowledged inaccuracies Modules cut regardless Student choice completely diminished
NOUS has a track record of cutting programmes which lead to cutting jobs & departments.
Their Cookie Cutter University model means the only differentiation is the (superficial) prestige institutions have from simply being old. The strength of academic research&education is gone. #UKHE #SaveHE

Big turnout for the joint unions rally at Glasgow Caledonian University: opposing cuts and defending jobs. Hearing from UCU branch president Karen Lorimer #SaveHE #StopTheCuts
This is what solidarity looks like.✊️✊️ Amazing support from @nusscotland.bsky.social supporting striking staff at @ucuaberdeen.bsky.social @ducuuo.bsky.social @hwucu.bsky.social & Strathclyde. They know without job security for workers students won't thrive #StopTheCuts #SaveHE
Compulsory redundancies, course closures, and ridiculous student-staff ratios will not stand. And they definitely won't stand in the face of gas lighting like this.
Vote today.

Thanks to STV for their coverage of our long running dispute.
Our branch has looked at the figures and believe that further staff cuts are unjustified and will cause irreparable damage to the University of Dundee.
Join us on our picket lines today and tomorrow, all morning.
#SaveHE #SaveDundeeUni
Not to mention that a high turn out rate in itself will put incredible pressure on our administration to actually listen to the people who make this university what it is.
So don't wait! Vote TODAY!!!

We’ll be gathering outside the Tower Building this morning from 10-11am to ask why the University of Dundee is continuing with Jon cuts and forecasting redundancies.
Anyone can join us to support this peaceful rally.
Front of the Tower Building, 10-11am.

What better way to end your weekend than by co-signing this petition in support of @ucuessex.bsky.social calling out the devastating cuts which their management is making.
Let their governing body know managers may not care about the wider public, but the wider public sure does care. #SaveHE
A man stands against a bare wall holding a piece of paper that says “I’m going on strike because I don’t want to lose any more colleagues.”
Our member Jon will be on strike next week because he doesn’t want to lose any more colleagues
“Over 600 colleagues have left the University recently. But it’s not just about the numbers. It’s about the friendly, dedicated people who are no longer here to research, teach and support others” #SaveHE
An industrial mandate means we can challenge compulsory redundancies, course closures, and skyrocketing student-staff ratios. And hell, we might actually save this university in the process.
Vote today! Make your voice heard!

Solidarity with @ucuaberdeen.bsky.social on strike to save jobs #SaveHE
Next week’s strikes will be critical for the University of Dundee.
Do we accept the upcoming compulsory redundancies that UEG are forecasting or do we ask them to rule them out?
Join the picket lines next week to make your voice heard. You are the difference.
