Spotted on campus

A new UU juggling club

Perhaps we all should join, given the unsustainability of workloads in @ulsteruni.bsky.social ?

Vote 'yes'

Not just a Halloween costume @ulsteruni.bsky.social 👇

- Always being asked to "do more with less"
- hyper surveillance culture
- increased workload intensity
- policy that puts students against staff

Time to stand up to it...

Vote 'yes' in the @ucu.org.uk #wearetheuniversity industrial ballot

Quote from a member....

"Just voted in the pay & conditions ballot. I’m sick of worsening pay & conditions. I’m sick of working in a constant state of crisis. I’m sick of the exploitative, careless leadership in this sector"

Make no mistake, student learning conditions have deteriorated dramatically since the intro of marketisation, but they will get much much worse if we don't stand

Bosses will use bogus gongs to try to gaslight students & staff

We won't be fooled

Vote "Yes" #wearetheuniversity

We were proud to stand with our students today to protest @ulsteruni.bsky.social ongoing investments in companies complicit in the genocide in Gaza

Time for UU to end investments in these companies.
