If you missed it, here’s the interim Principal talking about substantial future job cuts at University of Dundee.
He refers to the number of job losses recommended in the recovery plan. This is 390FTE with 340FTE via redundancies.
We believe redundancies are not necessary. #SaveHE #SaveDundeeUni

While I have everyone's attention, the genocide happening in Palestine -- in Gaza AND the West Bank -- is a crime against humanity.
Please raise your voice in defense of Palestinian lives. They are depending on us to remind those with power that they have a right to live.

The tragic landslide in Blatten gives me the excuse to tell you the story of how we found out Ice Ages existed. It's a cool story and the most important bit is rather similar to what's happening now.

A day will come when everyone who tolerated this genocide and remained silent will cry and beg for mercy. Imagine if these were your children — the ones you feed every day, tuck into bed, wake up each morning, and walk to school. This is unbearable. Unbearable.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Absolutely vile behaviour by my employer. Our management needs to go. They have zero credibility at this point.
The University of Dundee is currently trying to make 100% of female research Professors in the School of Science and Engineering redundant.
100% OF FEMALE RESEARCH PROFESSORS!
Only one female professor (teaching and scholarship) from that School will remain working on our UK campuses.

It’s a lovely day for a strike. Grab your shades and come down to our picket this morning at the front of the Tower Building from 8am-12pm.
We’re fighting for Shane O’Neill, Elise Gallagher and Tricia Bey to rule out compulsory redundancies at the University of Dundee.
