It's only important if it makes a profit is now the mantra of university leaders up and down the country. Look out for these petitions from Nottingham and other places, including my old employer Leicester, who are also slashing and burning right now.

Cutting courses in architecture, maths, public health (5 years out from a global pandemic!), modern languages, and theology among many others. The United Kingdom is allowing vandals to destroy one of their few remaining world class sectors over relatively paltry sums of money.

My former employer, @uniofnottingham.bsky.social, will be the first Russell Group university to cut #Theology degrees from next year onwards: thetab.com/2025/11/06/r... Do consider to sign this student-led petitions: www.change.org/p/stop-the-r... @uonucu.bsky.social
