Bristol Perspectives out now! Issue 4 of our alternative university newsletter

bristol | anti-cuts | announcement Wednesday March 14, 2012 20:19 by BristolStudent

 In the wake of strikes and occupations last year, Bristol Perspectives was formed by a collective of staff and students fed up with university bosses. This alternative newsletter exists to give a voice to staff, who feel intimidated by management, and to create a space for debate and discussion about our vision for the university, in face of the government attacks on Higher Education.

In this issue:

• Why the student debt is too damn high
• A classed experience of the University of Bristol
• International news
• '30 years in the racket'; becoming redundant in your 50s
• Academia can learn from football
• Newsflash - There is no alternative... But is there?
• On being 'wacky' and 'crazy'
• Workloads, and yet more workloads!

And, available online only:

• A call for action to take back the banks
• Free stencil
