Apologies for cross-posting.

Incredible that this working class college would be threatened with closure right now.

Dear colleagues, comrades and friends -

The management of Ruskin College Oxford, historically central to working-class and labour education in the UK, have decided to effectively close its BA and MA in International Labour and Trade Union Studies by making all academic staff in the department redundant, meaning that there is now no institution providing labour and trade union studies in the UK.

Please sign the petition to support Ruskin College Oxford here

https://friendsofruskin.wordpress.com/2017/03/24/defend-ruskins-ba-and-ma-courses/

and circulate this on any lists where you think people may be interested / supportive.

In solidarity,

Laurence
