clo_againTo my university,
You have too much money. You're building a medical school that you don't need and that no one will come to (though I notice you don't put any effort into improving the English department, thanks). You spent thousands on an overhead projector and screen for the underpass which is *never* turned on. You overcharge for accomodation, you overcharge in every shop on campus, you hire utterly incompetent office staff who can't ever deserve pay rises, you've built an entire complex down my end of campus with a huge food hall and spare rooms that you make no effort to utilise and is effectively a massive waste of money and space. You've rebuilt half the accomodation on campus, you're rebuilding the rest including adding hundreds more expensive rooms that you really don't need. You effectively see students as thousands of tiny little cashpoints running around your campus, *trying* to get on as best as they can with the business of getting a degree which you endeavor to make as unnecessarily complicated as possible while taking us for every penny we have. And next year, you're effectively DOUBLING your fresher income with no effort on your part, with these stupid top-up fees that no one wants except the universities who buy three (count them, *three*) hugely expensive projectors around campus that I've barely even seen switched on and then say they have no money.
Don't you dare send me simpering emails giving account figures that supposedly "prove" you don't have enough millions to pay the lecturers what they want and trying to turn us against our student union for supporting the strike. I disagree with the way they're going about it but quite frankly, working for you? I'd be on strike too. Here's an idea; STOP SPENDING MONEY ON YOUR STUPID POINTLESS MEDICAL SCHOOL AND USE IT FOR AN ACTUAL, USEFUL PURPOSE. Like, *paying* the lecturers you already have.
Absolutely no love at all you pathetic whiny assholes,
Clo
Jesus Christ on a cracker. I've never read such a pathetic, whining, simpering, crawling email in my life. If my university is trying to alienate its students, goddamn it's working.

They are being a bunch of fucking idiots! I haven't got 3 pieces of coursework back, and if i've failed any of them its a bit stupid to sit the exam for them next week! In high school or college it wouldn't bother me as much, but its the fact that we pay a lot of money to be at uni and they stand at the front of the class bitching that they don't get enough. Worked out its around £35 per lecture, and we've missed 2 due to strikes, we want out £70 back!!!
Student Strike!!!! How would the uni look if NO students sat their exams?!?
