BROKEN - word for how we feel this week, as we get scored for our jobs in @SociologyGold + 10 other departments.
Now we have very different diaries of living with the shock created to our collective, bodies and psychic states by the creation of a 'crisis' by management, depletion through restructure 1 and a hostile environment.
horrendous situation of disregard from on high, when the students and colleagues are saying no, no, no...

A wonderful connecting audience @jaagcollective yesterday, for dementia and music. It always takes me a while to tune back into this urgent way of Striking a Chord, with @maiopatti

Thoughts of solidarity with friends and colleagues at goldsmiths this week as they await the outcome of this hatchet job.
Current plans to reduce staffing in the historic @SociologyGold by as much as *HALF* risk “reducing it to a corpse fit only for autopsy.”
Damning words of solidarity from Professor Les Back @AcademicDiary 🙏
#NotADoneDeal @GoldsmithsUoL

A key justification for sacking 130+ staff @GoldsmithsUoL is that staff costs are way above the sector average that the College insists is 43% acc to HESA. Except that HESA says the average is 51%. Management wouldn't want to exaggerate would they? @goldsmithsucu #NotADoneDeal
