Estate agents selling student accommodation to individual investors remain confident about the long term prospects for higher education. They are offering 999 year leases.
In 1970 vice-chancellors were invited to dinner with the PM to get a security briefing on students’ political activities. A 1973 meeting was focused on links with industry, the prospects for Europe and whether HE should create ‘thinkers or doers’ moremeansbetter.wordpress.com/2017/01/05/the…
The mood has changed on campus; we’ve swapped the hourly bustle between teaching sessions for quiet corridors. It’s not all exams, but the signage marks a change in the academic year.
OfS are consulting on draft freedom of speech & academic freedom guidance. It opens with Mill. Am going to suggest adding Kant - who’s clearer on the need for the parts of the university not regulated by the state (read PSRBs) to determine what it teaches #Kant300
During the week, the SKW hall was full of wonders like modules on biochemistry and digital marketing. At the weekend, it’s been given over to the wonders of the PBFA Oxford Book Fair.
You always learn new things at @burgonsoc conferences. Towards the end of the CNAA, when some institutions had delegated powers, variants of the hoods were produced. This MA from Cheltenham & Gloucester College of HE has added green to the standard CNAA version.
Former sites of HEIs; a series. St Charles College was first founded as Wandsworth College in 1874 but moved to St Charles Square in 1905, changing its name. It moved on to Roehampton in 1946 as Digby Stuart. The chapel remains as a church, with the former connecting door.
This is an excellent look at the history of @StGeorgesUni by @hughjconsulting. There’s something special about the integration of health education alongside care, transferred from Hyde Park Corner to Tooting. wonkhe.com/blogs/higher-e…
A year ago two former members of the OfS student panel gave evidence to @HLIndustryCom. OfS has been saying they are refocusing/reframing the panel, and committed to producing a report on student engagement and its influence during this academic year. committees.parliament.uk/oralevidence/1…

@IGMansfield What should a young person do if they cannot get a T level place because there are no colleges nearby offering any in subjects they want? What should a college do if there are too few employers willing to offer placements within their region?

The Finns have a “I’m not stuck in here with you you’re stuck in here with me” mentality and it makes me incredibly grateful they joined the alliance.
Because of inflation and fixed tuition fees, universities can only indoctrinate about 2/3rds as much as they did in 2012 👍👍👍

Case studies are always treated as slightly embellished versions of true scenarios. But the precise facts make a huge difference in cases like these. So sending these signals is both unhelpful and counterproductive.
