Did you find an elephant in a room on the strike day?
Whenever the security of academic jobs is at stake the elephant in the room is academic freedom.
For the 22 June strike day we hid elephants in rooms across the campus, with a chocolate prize for anyone who found one and brought it back to the picket line. Well done to the students and members of one of unions that weren’t on strike who came to collect their prize! If you found an elephant after the picket had finished we’re afraid you’ve missed the chocolate (it was yummy). Please take good care of your elephant and please sign the petition against detrimental changes to the university statute on dismissing staff.
