During a #leadership workshop for Early Career Researchers last week, something struck me. As humans, we are prone to self-serving bias. Yet, most academics (including me) in that workshop felt that we also struggle with imposter syndrome. we exist in two separate contradictory worlds!!

If 35% of students report sexual harassment,violence or assault in England's top universities then what would be the numbers for staff in such universities? There are power imbalances for staff too at such workplaces. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I am wondering why students treat female professors as informal therapists or mothers when professional services is already available!! we are neither trained nor paid to be therapists. Possibly a new research area for a brave soul

The reality for us teachers is that a student is not even willing to write Acknowledgements without completely delegating it to Generative AI.

My LinkedIn feed is now only showing this from scholars across the world. I wonder why is it coming as a shock, the push/nudge/movement to a specific world-view started quite sometime ago.
