The situation within the School in question is terrible. The staff are aware of the truth and support the lecturer who is suspended for allegedly harassing this PhD student. That is why there were 74 staff signatures supporting him and this would have been greater if all staff were contactable when this petition was making the rounds. There are management cronies who support the incessant nepotism and corruption proliferated by the very top of the School. The VC should be ashamed of himself for implying that race is a factor in the production and dissemination of this material. If the VC or Head of School had any integrity whatsoever they would resign, but being men of low calibre in terms of transparency, fairness and honesty, this could be a step too far.

they want to get rid of staff like this in unis, colleges and schools. one of my lecturers is a racist and also bullies students who suffer with depression. she also changes your tutorial plan after you have filled it in to suit her needs. i was given an outstanding placement report by my work placement and lo and behold this idiot of a lecturer i have changed it to a negative report. all the other staff are too scared to speak out against her and management know what she is doing but their excuse is aww she's got a lot on her plate. yeah don't we all but we all don't go around treating people badly. when will management of these types of estsablishments investigate things like this, we had a class of 20 at the start of the accademic year and now we only have 14 due to her bullying and victimisation of students.
I was bullied by a tutor at university... Eventually a good student friend complained for me and after that my grades suffered and the staff ganged up on me. It's horrible being a target of abuse and feeling like one can't escape from it.
Hi. I am a male, and was bullied for a few years by my female lecturer at university 2005-2008. I attended councelling. But the situation still haunts me. Is there anything I can do. Its june 2013. Can I still complain to the university now, or should I leave it. What should I do? Thanks. Amar_S.1@hotmail.co.uk
Yes prejudice within academia is becoming more and more saturated, and tutors especially like to attack the most vulnerable students who are prone to ill treatment, making their grades and self confidence suffer. Unfortunately, they often get away with it, with the support and back up of the University rendering the student to feel hopeless and helpless, and just damaging all potential of gaining a good degree and a good job at the end of it all! Such tutors are wicked and vile!
I was a student nurse at my University in Ormskirk 2009-2012. I spoke out about my personal tutor, I was victimised thereafter, and He had chosen my final elective placement were I was further bullied, and was not allowed to change. He then compiled lies about me and put me through a fitness to practice, staff stuck together no one listened even higher up. Office 0f independant has kept my case going for two years, first justified but nothing concluded, and closed case? then second case unjustified, but to go to a appeals panel on there decsion. explained did not want to go back to a place I was bullied, and am already aware the direction this will take me, and what I have been through. but OIA seems to have avoided the issues raised, and further closed my case. lost my confidence, self esteem, suffered stress, along with loss of earning and loss of earning and career.
Im at college in Glasgow just now and im being bullied by one of my lecturer but they're is nothing i can do about it because the lecturer is lovely to everyone else.
You can do, you can go to see counsellor at college. She should be able to support you. I have recently getting support from safeguarding team at college. Every college has safe guarding team, we normally kept unaware by staff so we would not be able to raise concerns
