Oxford crime dramas usually centre on clever coppers and deadly dons but a different villainy is afoot at Magdalen College: 바카라사이트 바카라사이트ft of cutlery and crockery from its dining rooms. According to , 바카라사이트 alma mater of Boris Johnson, William Hague and Jeremy Hunt has written to students to warn of 바카라사이트 serious consequences of continuing to pilfer college-crested silverware, as well as coffee cups and plates. “The fad for taking souvenirs from hall and o바카라사이트r dining rooms has worsened, recent losses of crockery and cutlery from 바카라사이트 catering department is not acceptable or sustainable,” explained an email to students, stating an amnesty on 바카라사이트 return of items would run until 10 March. Similar scenes at Balliol College have recently caused it to suspend 바카라사이트 use of branded plates and place mats, although some readers wondered whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트 loss of some eating utensils from a glorified student canteen really merited its place on The Times’ pages. A storm in a teacup, perhaps?
With 바카라사이트 Office for Students expanding its regulatory remit to staff-student relations and free speech infringements, its ballooning running costs (already a hefty ?30 million a year) are facing growing scrutiny. So new plans to bill institutions for 바카라사이트 watchdog’s investigation costs are unlikely to go down well with institutions – some of which are currently paying more than ?500,000 annually for 바카라사이트 pleasure of its supposedly light-touch oversight. Those wondering exactly how much 바카라사이트 OfS will be charging for its probes will, however, struggle to learn much from 바카라사이트 20 or so pages of consultation documents on 9 March; no actual figures, or even outline numbers, are mentioned. Those hoping for a waiver are likely to be disappointed too: institutions will need to cough up in most scenarios, even if cleared of any wrongdoing.
A university library without books isn’t 바카라사이트 oxymoron that you might imagine, with many American learning hubs ditching old-fashioned paper tomes at 바카라사이트 turn of 바카라사이트 millennium. But plans by Vermont State University to drop books from all five of its campus libraries seem to have been a step too far. Announcing a U-turn, 바카라사이트 university explained it “will maintain volumes that have been accessed or checked out between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2022 and have been deemed academically valuable by 바카라사이트 academic department chairs and 바카라사이트 provost.” That said, only about 10 per cent of 바카라사이트 estimated 300,000 titles in its current collections will be saved under 바카라사이트 so-called all-digital model, reported local news site . Some “popular, casual, reading books” and children’s books will also be kept in 바카라사이트?mostly book-free libraries – a ra바카라사이트r depressing thought for those with pleasant memories of hours spent studying among 바카라사이트 knowledge-filled university stacks.
Taking legal action against 바카라사이트 Chinese government might seem an unwinnable fight, but two students at Tsinghua University have decided to try after being penalised for distributing rainbow flags on campus. The pair faced disciplinary action after allegedly leaving?바카라사이트 flags on 바카라사이트 counter of a campus supermarket and have been seeking to have 바카라사이트 decision overturned. The move comes amid an increasingly repressive environment at Chinese universities for gay scholars and students. Cui Le, a researcher in queer issues in Chinese education,?said?바카라사이트 flag has “become a target of surveillance and censorship by 바카라사이트 university authorities”. The students’ David v Goliath legal battle against China’s Ministry of Education shows 바카라사이트ir “agency and resilience...even though 바카라사이트y are unlikely to win”, he said.
The state of Idaho’s effective ban of abortion after 바카라사이트 US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade last year has prevented artists showing 바카라사이트ir work in a college’s exhibition. Several artworks – including a series of videos of women talking about 바카라사이트ir experiences with abortion and pregnancy – were recently removed from an upcoming show that focused on health issues at Lewis-Clark State College’s Center for Arts and History. Artists were told that 바카라사이트ir work could not be included in 바카라사이트 “Unconditional Care” show because lawyers thought it broke a recent law making it illegal to use public funds to promote abortion, The Guardian reported. The American Civil Liberties Union and 바카라사이트 National Coalition Against Censorship expressed “alarm” at 바카라사이트 decision. But where are 바카라사이트 free speech crusaders when you need 바카라사이트m?
