I'm a lecturer - I used to love student debates, now I'm called 'triggering'
As Sussex University has been fined a record £585,000 for 'failing to uphold freedom of speech' - one lecturer fears debate and discussion has become dangerous territory

I'm a lecturer - mollycoddling universities are setting young people up to fail
Students can watch lectures online at home and avoid presentations if they make them too anxious - we're failing to prepare them for the world of work

I’m new here so have posted a few bits I’m proud of with my two hats - a university employee (it’s not great) and a psychologist (perception is key).

The Words We Use Give Our Children Their Scripts for Life
We use words to think, to express who we are, and to describe how we feel. But while words describe, they can also change how we see ourselves and the world around us.
