A perfect syllabus is like a perfect dissertation. It doesn’t exist and nobody reads it unless they are paid to do it. #teachersoftwitter

Our structures have generated a new type of academic, one with less luxury to exercise pure intellectual curiosity than fear of precarity, being disciplined by management, taking every opportunity to demonstrate their value to the academy that doesn't value them. Fixed it for you

Our times have spawned a new breed of academic, one driven less by intellectual curiosity than by the ambition to meet managerial targets and exercise power, taking every opportunity to display “leadership” through inane speeches and meaningless but burdensome initiatives.
