On Tuesday London Metropolitan University (LMU) became the first institution to be greylisted in UCU’s history. A huge thank you for all the amazing response we've had so far. We have been inundated with messages of support and been copied in on hundreds of emails to vice-chancellor, Alfred Morris. We will be responding to all the individual queries as soon as possible and everyone can expect a response by Wednesday of next week.
What you can do:
· Send a message of support to the branch via jstephens@ucu.org.uk
· Non-attendance, speaking at or organising academic or other conferences at LMU
· Not applying for any advertised jobs at LMU
· Not giving lectures at LMU
· Not accepting positions as visiting professors or researchers at LMU
· Not writing for any academic journal which is edited at or produced by LMU
· Not taking up new contracts as external examiners for taught courses
