Sad news out of Nottingham Uni: "world-leading" but suspending (i.e. closing for now) music and modern languages programmes? Surely not. I hope they reconsider. Please sign this petition protesting the closure of the music programmes: c.org/k884FyfWPt

The proposals to cut the Ancient History degree are unjustified and brutal. Please show your support to colleagues at Cardiff by signing this petition. I have just added my signature chng.it/pNm2x2GCFT

Happy New Year everyone! 2024 ended with the depressing news of the potential scrapping of the Latin Excellence Programme: Here is a (first) letter protesting this short-sighted, penny-pinching move by the government- more will follow. dub.sh/mbByOF0 Let's hope the government will reconsider!

Scrapping the Latin excellence programme is shortsighted | Letter

Letter: Dr Ulla Rajala says the programme has given state school pupils the same opportunities as those in the private sector, and should not be axed

I sent out the first departmental newsletter (now also available on Spotify!) to our Classics community here at RHUL last week & asked colleagues & students to consider contributing to the next issue. The response was overwhelming- I got material for the next 3 weeks! This is community!

My first day on Blue-Sky This platform looks like what (X)-T could have been. Lots of interesting features and a much calmer, humane environment. But it will take ages for most ppl to build up connections. Let's see how this goes...

I have just joined and am figuring out what makes this platform "tick"... If you're passionate for the ancient world, language, the art of persuasion, I would like to connect with you!
