ALT After the university counsel vote, it is now officially confirmed that the cuts and programme closures are going ahead. This is what that means:
ALT Senior management at Roehampton University has made it clear they are making an ideological shift. One away from the Arts, Humanities, and social sciences, and away from all their students and academics involved in these areas. They have failed to prove these cuts are necessary and failed to listen to any of us in their “consultation period”.
ALT Current students are being lied to about the impact this will have on their studies, and the students of the future are being robbed of having the ability to enjoy an education in these fields.
ALT Protest sign that reads ‘firing my supervisor I. The final year of my PhD’
ALT Protest sign that reads ‘stop university self-harm trying to cut its heart’. In place of the word heart is a green broken heart.
ALT Protest sign that reads ‘senior management, show us your salaries!’. The word ‘your’ is underlined.
