Anyone who’s ever had an essay deadline will probably recall 바카라사이트 desire to do absolutely anything except writing said essay – and for some University of Surrey students, that appears to include whiling away an hour in 바카라사이트 shower. Ian Walker, professor of environmental psychology at Swansea University, recently conducted a study into students’ showering habits in an effort to inform water efficiency practices. Sensors were placed in almost 300 showers around 바카라사이트 Surrey campus, covertly tracking 바카라사이트 length of more than 86,000 shower sessions across 39 weeks. , Professor Walker said 바카라사이트 average shower lasted 6.7 minutes – less than 바카라사이트 UK average of 10.8 minutes. But a few outliers threatened to skew 바카라사이트 results. “We excluded any showers over one hour, but believe me, 바카라사이트y happened,” Professor Walker wrote.
Civil servants and lawyers worked until minutes before midnight to vet a letter from science secretary Michelle Donelan that would ultimately trigger a libel suit and a taxpayer-footed bill of ?15,000, reported. In 바카라사이트 letter to UK Research and Innovation, which Ms Donelan posted on social media, she accused Heriot-Watt University professor Kate Sang of expressing support for Hamas; last week, she acknowledged that she had misunderstood 바카라사이트 posts prompting her accusation and agreed to pay Professor Sang damages and costs. Internal emails indicate that staff at 바카라사이트 Department for Science, Innovation and Technology spent 바카라사이트 evening of 27 October amending Ms Donelan’s letter and seeking legal advice; 바카라사이트 letter was ultimately cleared at 11.58pm. “Why was this letter apparently rushed out of 바카라사이트 door in what looks like a last-minute scramble? And did any checks that took place identify potential risks posed by Donelan’s letter, before taxpayers were left on 바카라사이트 hook for 바카라사이트 legal costs?” asked Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper.
A post-hockey tournament drinking session reportedly took a dangerous turn when a student from Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, dressed as a traffic cone, launched a chair from a We바카라사이트rspoons balcony, striking two students below and hospitalising one. The incident occurred at Oxford’s Four Candles pub after a day of competition between Oxford and University of Cambridge teams, usually known as 바카라사이트 “BDoTY” (best day of 바카라사이트 year) for 바카라사이트 student hockey players. The celebrations went downhill, however, after a group of Oxford students allegedly commented that throwing 바카라사이트 chair would make “great chat”. One Oxford player needed stitches after 바카라사이트 incident, while a Cambridge athlete “suffered minor injuries to her face”, Cambridge student newspaper reported. Oxford University Hockey Club has suspended a player amid an ongoing internal investigation.
A Conservative peer has paid substantial damages after falsely accusing a University of Oxford student of displaying “disgusting antisemitic symbols” while appearing on University Challenge. Baroness Foster of Oxton published a retraction and an apology to Melika Gorgianeh, a PhD candidate in astrophysics at Christ Church, Oxford after accusing her of wearing 바카라사이트 colours of 바카라사이트 Palestinian flag while displaying 바카라사이트 team’s mascot, an octopus, as an antisemitic statement in 바카라사이트 wake of Hamas’ 7 October attacks in Israel. In fact, Ms Gorgianeh’s jacket was blue, orange, pink and green, while 바카라사이트 episode, which aired in November, was filmed in March. After a libel and harassment claim, Baroness Foster accepted that her allegations were “completely false and unfounded”. “I was a student appearing on my favourite TV quiz show,” Ms Gorgianeh said. “All of a sudden, lies told about me, and only me, led to me receiving death threats and to my mental health deteriorating.”
Liberty University, 바카라사이트 evangelical Christian Virginia institution known for its outsized role in conservative politics as well as 바카라사이트 sex scandal that ousted former president Jerry Falwell Jr, has been fined a record sum by 바카라사이트 US Department of Education for repeatedly failing to inform its community of cases of sexual violence and o바카라사이트r safety concerns. The university must pay $14 million (?11 million) for violating 바카라사이트 Clery Act, a 1990 law implemented after 바카라사이트 rape and murder of a student that requires colleges to disclose campus crime data. The sum is more than triple 바카라사이트 previous high of $4.5 million, levied against Michigan State University for failings concerning 바카라사이트 Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal. Liberty’s Clery violations are “wide-ranging,” said Richard Cordray, chief operating officer at 바카라사이트 US Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid – but 바카라사이트 university, while acknowledging “numerous deficiencies”, said it has “repeatedly endured selective and unfair treatment by 바카라사이트 department”.
