I can't express how damaging this is, music and languages aren't just optional extras, they are at the core of what a university does: cultivate knowledge and culture in the next generation. And if they'll cut those, what's next? It's institutional self-destruction. www.bbc.com/news/article...

And it's not 'just' the arts and humanities, it's truly across the board cuts. Not even "what's next" but what's here right now. This might save a few quid in the short run but in the long run, you're hollowing out the university and destroying your brand. No-one will want to come here.

Mathematical Physics MSci at UoN earmarked for closure as mgmt start the cuts. As the custodians of Einstein’s famous blackboard, this is especially worrying. Will we still teach his greatest ideas in years to come? @uonucu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk
