And there it is. A shocking, appalling, and deeply disappointing announcement of an entirely unnecessary move from the university. But this is exactly why we have already started organising .

The best option, of course, would be more direct funding from the government with a robust reform of senior management/governance of universities and a ban on the use of consultancy firms. If universities don't have the expertise internally to run themselves, who does?

Happy Monday, everyone! Let's talk about redundancies! We set up a page that collects information related to the threat of compulsory redundancies brought on by the university. Do look it over to know what we are fighting and how we are fighting it!

At the UCU parliamentary lobby, we impressed on MPs the need to invest in Higher Ed not only to save jobs but also to protect the future of our students and communities. Universities like UEA play a vital role in the education, culture, and economy of many UK cities and regions. #HEcrisis #SaveUEA
