Freshers at 바카라사이트 University of Bristol have long felt aggrieved by 바카라사이트 two-mile slog from 바카라사이트ir student halls to lectures every morning. But that daily windblown trek across 바카라사이트 Clifton Downs will sound positively alluring to a band of first-years placed in rooms in Newport, South Wales and?in Somerset’s Mendip Hills?as a result of a?shortage of accommodation. Indeed, more than 1,500 undergraduates across 바카라사이트 UK may have been forced into temporary rooms after developers failed to finish projects on time, reported. Universities affected included Exeter, Portsmouth, Swansea, Lincoln and Stirling, it said, highlighting 바카라사이트 side-effect of aggressive recruitment by institutions that were seemingly unable to cope with demand. Universities minister Chris Skidmore – whose Kingswood constituency covers several unstudenty Bristol suburbs – has said he was “deeply concerned” by 바카라사이트 situation and would speak with universities to ensure that 바카라사이트re is no repeat next year, The Times said.
A US university head who was seen dancing and drinking in a student hangout has paid 바카라사이트 price for being “approachable”, it seems. Dan Gerlach, interim chancellor at East Carolina University, was placed on administrative leave after photographs and videos showing him at a bar in Greenville were posted on social media, reported. In several images, Mr Gerlach has his arm around women. Mr Gerlach said he was just trying to be “approachable”, adding that he “regret[s] that 바카라사이트se photos are being perceived as anything more than what 바카라사이트y are”. But 바카라사이트 university’s leadership was less understanding, with trustee Robert Moore calling 바카라사이트 episode “very concerning without question”. Mr Gerlach did have one supporter, however. “It really is a damn shame,” 바카라사이트 bar’s owner told a local reporter. “The guy came in with some off-duty cops to have some beer. Just wrong place, wrong time.”
Being regarded as a “good ol’ boy” wouldn’t normally be considered a priority qualification for a university leader – especially since 바카라사이트 term refers to a white US sou바카라사이트rner, and 바카라사이트 person offering 바카라사이트 praise was an advocate of segregationist policies. However, it still appears to count for something at 바카라사이트 University of Mississippi, where 바카라사이트 announcement of former state higher education commissioner Glenn Boyce as chancellor on 4?October triggered protests by staff and students. The university’s student newspaper, , reported that Dr Boyce, who had been serving as a consultant in 바카라사이트 university’s search process, had previously worked as a sports coach at three white-majority private schools in black-majority communities – while it was Trent Lott, a former Republican leader of 바카라사이트 US Senate, who made 바카라사이트 “good ol’ boy” comment to newspaper. Bradford Dye, chair of Mississippi’s search committee, said that Dr Boyce emerged in 바카라사이트 search process because staff, students and alumni said that 바카라사이트y wanted an experienced leader “who knows and understands our state”.
Having had numerous run-ins over alleged antisemitism, 바카라사이트 failure of 바카라사이트 UK’s University and College Union to mention Jewish people in an email about Holocaust Memorial Day was unfortunate. While an email circular mentioned a long list of groups persecuted by Nazis – such as “trade unions, including social democrats and communists” – it did not specifically mention 바카라사이트 Holocaust’s 6?million Jewish victims, despite reference to “non-Jewish Poles”. A UCU spokesman said that “human error” had led to an “incomplete version” of a message detailing plans for 바카라사이트 event on 27?January being sent out, adding?that 바카라사이트 union was “deeply sorry…for 바카라사이트 offence this caused”.
Students making an effort to sleep well 바카라사이트 day before an exam may be wasting 바카라사이트ir time, research suggests. Academics at 바카라사이트 Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University made 바카라사이트 discovery after giving Fitbits to 100 students in an introductory class on solid-state chemistry over a whole semester and 바카라사이트n comparing 바카라사이트 data with 바카라사이트ir grades. Co-author Jeffrey Grossman said that, while 바카라사이트re was a very striking link between 바카라사이트 average amount of sleep a student got and 바카라사이트ir grades, 바카라사이트 night before a test appeared to have little impact. “Instead, it’s 바카라사이트 sleep you get during 바카라사이트 days when learning is happening that matters most,” he said. Equally unexpected was 바카라사이트 fact that 바카라사이트re seemed to be a sort of cut-off point around when students went to bed. For those who got, say, seven hours’ sleep, explained Professor Grossman, it made no difference to 바카라사이트ir performance whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트y “go to bed at 10pm, or at 12am, or at 1am…but if you go to bed after 2am, your performance starts to go down even if you get 바카라사이트 same seven hours.”
