I am not sure how to begin to think about the risks we face in the #UK #university: multiple universities are in troubles with thousands of jobs and colleagues's life at risk, there are more than one thing we need fixing here in UK as the model doesn't work anymore and I would agree that gov and the university needs to stop running it as a business, but how?

#Cornell Reaches Deal with #Trump Admin to Restore #Research #Funding

The Ivy League #university had warned of #layoffs after the Trump admin stripped it of funds this year. The cuts were among the deepest in higher #education.

“We have been using institutional resources to try to plug these #funding holes in the short term, but these interim measures are not sustainable,” #university leaders wrote. “We must immediately address our significant financial shortfalls by reducing costs & enacting permanent change to our operational model.”

The agreement with #Cornell is the fifth that the #Trump admin has announced since early July in connection with its pressure campaign against top #schools.

#law #AcademicFreedom

In April, the #Trump admin abruptly froze planned federal #research #funding for the #university. The govt had been scrutinizing #Cornell after accusing it of racial discrimination & antisemitism, & the university acknowledged receiving dozens of stop-work orders.

University leaders made clear that the #school was feeling extraordinary financial strain. The university has been considering issuing about $1 billion in bonds.

#Cornell University reached an agreement with the #Trump admin Friday that would restore hundreds of millions in federal #funding to the #university, acc/to university & govt ofcls.

The agreement would also end government *investigations* that have placed the #school under months of federal scrutiny over accusations of *antisemitism* [ #FreeSpeech] & *discrimination* [ #diversity initiatives] in admissions.

Folsom Field is where the CU Boulder sports-ball team plays all of their home games. There’s also some kind of a buffalo situation going on, because that’s the school mascot.

Hey, everyone needs a hobby, yeah?

I like to evaluate a city based on the spaces it provides for its people. Universities and libraries are at the top of my list of places to observe. I'll definitely visit Turin again.

Anyone out there able to help Nadeen out at the last minute so she can pay her (and her sister’s) tuition to continue their studies? You would be gifting the world two new dentists for the low price of $2,000.

The last day for them to register is tomorrow.

Please share + donate if you can.

#BrownUniversity Rejects #Trump #Extortion Attempt

#Brown was the second #university to turn down the *deal*, which would have given a #funding preference to #universities that agreed to conform to #conservative *values* including #censorship & restrictions on #InternationalStudents.

“I am concerned that the compact by its nature & by various provisions would restrict #AcademicFreedom & undermine the #autonomy of #Brown’s governance, critically compromising our ability to fulfill our mission,” the #university’s president, Christina H. Paxson, told #Trump admin officials in a letter Wednesday.

#Brown was the 2nd #university to rebuff the government’s proposal of so-called compact, after #MIT did so last week. But Brown’s decision was likely to carry extraordinary weight in #HigherEducation because it had previously reached a settlement with the #Trump admin to restore hundreds of millions in #federal #research #funding.

I love the errors that I get in my CompE labs because they're always weird errors that no one else has gotten before and the TAs don't even know how to fix it 😭
