I came across this article a local newspaper in the Fraser Valley, BC, 🇨🇦 published on my resignation from my former workplace, drawing on the article that I posted on LinkedIn explaining why I left: fraservalleytoday.ca/2026/01/02/u...

I thought I would share this article about why I resigned as Director of the South Asian Studies Institute at the University of the Fraser Valley #sasi #ufv #abbotsford #bc #canada #academia #highered #bullying #harassment #toxicity #selfbelief #resilience #strength www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-m...

…Graduation Ceremony today should be commended for truly making this my most favourite Graduation Ceremony by far 🙂 Many other universities could learn a lot from the way that they do things! 🙂 #feelinggrateful

🧵 I really enjoyed my LLM Graduation today! It was nice to graduate with friends that I made from my cohort 🙂 It wrapped up what has been a really great studying experience at the University of Reading! And the organisers of the quite informal, relaxed… Photo Credit: John Yip Photography

…It’s funny when I was a kid I would never have imagined that I would end up gaining five degrees in my life. The plan even at that young age was always to only achieve a BA, MA, and Ph.D. But my legal studies over these past two years just go to show that you never know what life has in store…

🧵 With the recent achievement of my LLM International Law I updated my email signature: Dr. Jatinder Mann, BA (Hons), MA (London), Ph.D. (Sydney), PgDip (London), LLM (Reading), FRHistS I have to say I think it looks pretty cool :-) Each of my five degrees took a lot of hard work and effort…

🧵 I recently achieved my LLM (Masters of Law) - International Law with a Merit at the University of Reading :-) I was really proud of this, especially as I was working on several academic commitments at the same time. Although it was a very depressing year to study international law,…
