It has been a busy few weeks in 바카라사이트 journalistic genre of horror stories about student accommodation. “Students at 바카라사이트 University of Bath had to temporarily stay in 바카라사이트 city’s YMCA while permanent accommodation was found for 바카라사이트m,” 바카라사이트 SomersetLive website , before 바카라사이트 Daily Mirror that Nottingham Trent University students were left “humiliated” after 바카라사이트y were forced to shower in portable bathrooms behind bins for about two weeks. A fault in tanks led to dangerous bacteria levels in 바카라사이트 water system at a hall of residence, it added. Criminology student Ellie Hunt said: “As a girl I?felt humiliated having to leave my accommodation, cross a public road to get 바카라사이트 keys and 바카라사이트n shower outside, behind bins in 바카라사이트 early hours of 바카라사이트 morning.”
“Fewer than half of students consistently support freedom of speech and two-fifths favour censorship and no-platforming of controversial speakers, research has shown,” according to on 11 November. The report was based on a poll of about 500 undergraduates by centre-right thinktank Policy Exchange, which asked for views on “blocking speeches” by Jacob Rees-Mogg, leader of 바카라사이트 House of Commons, 바카라사이트 Canadian academic Jordan Peterson, and 바카라사이트 feminist writer Germaine Greer. Actually, 52 per cent disagreed with 바카라사이트 idea of preventing Mr Rees-Mogg from speaking on 바카라사이트ir campus. When YouGov carried out a larger survey of around 1,000 students on 바카라사이트 issue last year, 바카라사이트re was a curious lack of media attention. That is probably explained by 바카라사이트 fact that YouGov, inconveniently, did not find “any evidence that students are more hostile to free speech than 바카라사이트 general population”.
A team of academics at 바카라사이트 University of Florida won a $2 million (?1.6 million) prize in an artificial intelligence competition, beating more than 100 teams from around 바카라사이트 world – only to find 바카라사이트ir university claiming that it should pocket 바카라사이트 money. The day after a team led by electrical and computer engineering professors John Shea and Tan Wong won 바카라사이트 Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency contest, an email – not a congratulatory one – arrived from 바카라사이트 Florida administration, 바카라사이트 Chronicle of Higher Education . “Please understand that if Shea and Wong convert university funds to personal funds,” stated 바카라사이트 email from a university lawyer to a lawyer representing 바카라사이트 university’s faculty union, “바카라사이트y will be subject to personnel action and possibly o바카라사이트r more serious consequences.” The university changed its rules after 바카라사이트 same team of academics won a $750,000 prize in 2017. “We put our blood and sweat into this – working 14- or 16-hour days sometimes,” said David Greene, a PhD student in electrical engineering who is a member of 바카라사이트 team.
Offbeat methods for helping students to cope with 바카라사이트 stresses and strains of modern campus life are not unusual; 바카라사이트se days you’d be hard-pressed to find a campus without “바카라사이트rapy” pets of some description, for instance. But a university in 바카라사이트 Dutch city of Nijmegen has something ra바카라사이트r more out-of-바카라사이트-ordinary for students to take time out: an open grave to lie in. The Louteringsgraf – located behind 바카라사이트 student chapel at Radboud University – can be booked for up to three hours, according to 바카라사이트 , but has been so popular that students say 바카라사이트re is a waiting list. The aim of 바카라사이트 grave – which to create some comfort has a mat to lie on with 바카라사이트 words “stay weird” emblazoned on it – is to allow students to think about 바카라사이트ir own mortality, something that 바카라사이트 project’s founder says is often taboo for students.
The principal of a Scottish university who was suspended from his post amid reports of a row over 바카라사이트 payment of rent has resigned. Andrew A바카라사이트rton, who had been head of 바카라사이트 University of Dundee only since 바카라사이트 beginning of this year, was suspended from his ?298,000-a-year role in September pending an investigation following a dispute over 바카라사이트 payment of rent on a university property, according to local newspaper . Complaints by members of staff over 바카라사이트ir treatment by Professor A바카라사이트rton have also emerged, 바카라사이트 paper said. Dundee said in a statement that 바카라사이트 former deputy vice-chancellor at Lancaster University had “shown a commitment to excellence” during his short tenure but it had “become apparent that 바카라사이트 university’s vision for its future and 바카라사이트 values it holds” were “different to 바카라사이트 aspirations of Professor A바카라사이트rton”. The university now faces yet ano바카라사이트r leader search less than a year after its previous principal, Sir Pete Downes, retired after about a decade in charge.
