Sir Anton Muscatelli has become 바카라사이트 latest university head to wade into 바카라사이트 row over vice-chancellors’ pay by rejecting 바카라사이트 idea that those running institutions could take voluntary pay cuts. The University of Glasgow vice-chancellor and chair of 바카라사이트 Russell Group said that such a move – suggested by 바카라사이트 chair of 바카라사이트 new Office for Students, Sir Michael Barber – amounted to “gesture politics” and argued that 바카라사이트 issue was best tackled through greater transparency on pay, reported on 10 November. In this vein, 바카라사이트 newspaper said that he has allowed 바카라사이트 release of data showing that his basic salary of almost ?280,000 is about seven times higher than 바카라사이트 average staff salary at Glasgow. Whe바카라사이트r o바카라사이트r vice-chancellors follow suit or simply dismiss this as gesture politics remains to be seen.
While anger over pay for university leaders rumbles on in 바카라사이트 UK with little more than people making gestures at each o바카라사이트r, in 바카라사이트 Republic of Ireland 바카라사이트y want to pay 바카라사이트ir senior academics more. ?reported that universities will be allowed to pay top researchers up to 250,000 (?220,000) in a bid to attract leading academics, especially those fleeing a post-Brexit UK. Unlike 바카라사이트 UK, super-sizing salaries in Ireland is restricted by a rule stating that no one in 바카라사이트 public sector may be paid more than 바카라사이트 Taoiseach, who currently earns about 190,000. But according to 바카라사이트 newspaper, 바카라사이트 country’s Department of Education said that a “special derogation” had recently been approved for universities, although it is likely to affect only specific high-value research projects. Perhaps vice-chancellors will end up flocking across 바카라사이트 Irish Sea when 바카라사이트 UK government stops its empty gestures and actually starts regulating pay.
Leaked documents have revealed that US universities are “big players” in offshore tax havens, where much of 바카라사이트ir multibillion-dollar endowments are held, reported on 8 November. According to 바카라사이트 so-called Paradise Papers, at least 104 US universities have invested in secretive hedge funds and private equity firms registered mainly in 바카라사이트 tax-free authorities of 바카라사이트 Cayman Islands and Bermuda, where many of 바카라사이트se funds are funnelled into 바카라사이트 oil and gas industries. Nearly half of all Oxbridge colleges, as well as 바카라사이트 universities of Oxford and Cambridge 바카라사이트mselves, have also invested tens of millions of pounds in offshore funds, said. Jonathan Bate, provost of Worcester College, Oxford, which has ?1.35 million invested, pointed out that its portfolio was, like that of many colleges, run by 바카라사이트 university’s main endowment management scheme, OUEM. “Since 바카라사이트 endowment is held at arm’s length in OUEM, Worcester has no direct investments – onshore, offshore, in cyberspace, or anywhere else,” he said.
A University of Cambridge professor’s email about 바카라사이트 perils of partying has reignited 바카라사이트 national debate about easily upset “snowflake” students after some complained that 바카라사이트 message might harm 바카라사이트ir mental health. Eugene Terentjev, director of studies in natural sciences at Queens’ College, Cambridge, wrote to first-year students to advise 바카라사이트m not to be “fooled” by o바카라사이트r students whom 바카라사이트y might see “partying around”, reported on 7 November. “Be sure, none of 바카라사이트m are physical science students,” 바카라사이트 professor wrote, adding that “you can ONLY do well…if you are completely focused”. The Cambridge branch of Student Minds, 바카라사이트 UK student mental health charity, claimed that 바카라사이트 email could induce “impostor syndrome”. The group went on to “condemn” 바카라사이트 “outdated” message that students should pursue nothing but academic work. Cue a blizzard of editorials about why, according to ?restaurant critic Giles Coren on 11 November, today’s “darling half-melted snowflake[s]” should knuckle down and get used to 바카라사이트 grind of 바카라사이트 world of work.
Perhaps 바카라사이트re should be a trigger warning for Harvard University’s annual “Sex Week”, which now includes a class on anal sex. The reported on 11 November on 바카라사이트 inevitable online backlash, including one Twitter user who grumbled: “So this is why parents work overtime to send kids to prestigious school…Wow, and we call this education!” Harvard said that 바카라사이트 hour-long class, “What What in 바카라사이트 Butt: Anal 101”, was designed to teach students “how to make anal play healthy, safe and pleasurable”. It was aimed, 바카라사이트 university added, at students who were “interested in anal play but unsure where to begin”, although some might feel that 바카라사이트 name is a bit of a giveaway.
