Strong words in @insidehighered about @UGent's letter suspending @nathancofnas: "Ghent argues that Cofnas’s criticism of Arday as “mentally disabled” and a "worthless scholar" was “an intentional and serious disturbance of the peace” that may violate “the Belgian Criminal #HigherEd #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #BE

I promised to give Ghent University the “benefit of the doubt” before writing a full piece about the Cofnas affair, by waiting for the temporary suspension to expire and hoping they’d come to their senses. Reliable sources now tell me that @UGent has extended @nathancofnas’s #CofnasAffair #UGent #HigherEducation #BE

Fifteen colleges, universities and university systems submitted testimony explaining how the rule, which allows international students to stay in the U.S. for only four years without an extension, is already impacting their campuses. https://t.co/hy2ddcqD1S #InternationalStudents #HigherEducation #USImmigration #US

This internal email from a tenured professor at Nathan Cofnas’ department shows not only that the “barrage” of complaints about the “negative effects on well-being” was perfectly coordinated, but that it was explicitly encouraged by rector Petra De Sutter herself.

Harvard closed its writing center and layed off the center’s longtime director for financial motives, a decision that could trigger other universities to follow suit, concluding than original writing –by extension, original thought– isn't worth the cost https://t.co/ux0NOjVZml #Harvard #WritingCenter #HigherEd #Nocountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

As was inevitable, the Arday Affair is moving on from the examination of one fabulist and plagiarist to the rot that has consumed much of the higher-education sector. These clowns oversee the step from childhood to adulthood for approaching half of all young people - and pretty #HigherEd #ArdayAffair #Plagiarism #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

True. Without @nathancofnas, the fraudster Jason Arday would still have his plush Professorial Chair at @Cambridge_Uni and continue to mismanage students and disgrace his field, and everyone would still be fawning over him.

Academia is either meritocratic or it isn’t. It either takes its rules seriously or it doesn’t. It is a moment to realize that higher education institutions have strayed too far from their core mission and that there really is no substitute for meritocracy https://t.co/PYw4VRMguU #meritocracy #highereducation #academia #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Some of the leading research universities in the U.S. are admitting fewer students to their doctoral programs amid widespread concerns about federal funding cuts and uncertainty. Admissions to top PhD programs down 15% https://t.co/RhrkchLmkp #PhD #HigherEducation #GraduateAdmissions #US

The students most hurt by not requiring admission tests at universities are those the policy was thought to help—first-generation, low-income, underrepresented. Weaker students drown in material they were never prepared to learn, stronger students tune out https://t.co/r0xleKtaAj #HigherEd #CollegeAccess #EquityInEducation #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

New op-ed for @timeshighered : universities hire for "fit": cheapest, least disruptive, easiest to slot in. But fields advance through disagreement, not consensus. Hiring should be a bet on who carries a discipline forward, not who unsettles it least. https://t.co/QE00opG7aR #HigherEd #AcademicHiring #DiversityInAcademia #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

Many academics are losing jobs in the UK. But @edgehill case stands out: a distinguished human rights scholar fired while battling cancer. Hope justice prevails & students consider universities' human rights records & treatment of staff when deciding where to study. #HumanRights #JobLoss #HigherEducation #UK

I was a beneficiary of the first big expansion of access to university education in Ireland in the early 1970s and believe our future national wellbeing demands that we continue to provide the best possible educational opportunities to our people. And yes, 3rd level education #EducationForAll #HigherEducation #Ireland #IE
