Athena SWAN is scheme recognizing universities’ efforts to promote gender equality

It's superficial & self-protective. It legitimizes university behaviour rather than fixing things

We're experiencing an unbelievable deluge of submissions. At our journal we got ~200 per year in 2020. Last year it was 600. This year it's 800 with several months to go. So that's why we're slower to get stuff out for review.

As the university year starts, lecturers are changing how they teach in response to the student accommodation crisis and long commutes. Some are turning to longer, less frequent, classes – but there’s a pedagogical trade-off, says UCD lecturer Keith Wilson.
