For more on Roehampton History @UORHistory and the illogicality of claims justifying 50% redundancies course redesign, see @RoyalHistSoc's summary (23 June): x.com/RoyalHistSoc/status/15… #twitterstorians

Replying to @history_uk
Second, that decisions to reduce staff numbers or close history programmes appear to be ideological. For example, between 2014/15 and 2019/20 history enrolments at Roehampton increased from 120 to 255 FTE. Yet as of May, all history staff are at risk of redundancy.
