From Monday 3 June, UCU has called on all members, trade unionists, and supporters to undertake an academic boycott of Goldsmiths which includes the following:
- NOT applying for any advertised jobs at Goldsmiths
- NOT speaking at or organising academic or other conferences at Goldsmiths
- NOT giving lectures at Goldsmiths
- NOT accepting positions as visiting professors or researchers at Goldsmiths
- NOT accepting new contracts as external examiners for taught courses at Goldsmiths.
We are also calling on UCU members and supporters to show solidarity with Goldsmiths by:
- donating to the branch’s GoFundMe
- passing motions in support of Goldsmiths UCU; a solidarity motion produced by the branch is available here. We will be talking about this on the committee but would be interested in any thoughts from member on this.
