How are students #evertoexcel if their degrees are not taken seriously by universities? Gender studies is more than a maketing ploy for the @Athena_SWAN pledge, its the livelihood of many studrnts. @univofstandrews #StAndrewsScrapsGenderStudies #StAndWithAlison

Gender Studies is a discipline targeted by institutions all around the world. How would @Athena_SWAN feel to learn @univofstandrews is one such institution? #evertoexcel seriously? #StAndWithAlison #StAndrewsScrapsGenderStudies #GenderEquality

This is about Alison and all junior female academics whose labour is exploited by universities like @univofstandrews who then reap the fruit of their hard work without giving anything back in return. Sign the letter https://t.co/An7pPPwNnI and share it. #StAndWithAlison

I just signed this open letter in defense of Dr. Alison Duncan Kerr's position at @univofstandrews. Alison has single-handedly created the St. Andrews Institute for Gender Studies & made a huge difference for philosophy (and beyond) in St. A. She deserves better! #StAndWithAlison

I warmly encourage @uniofstandrews to reconsider this choice. It is already perceived, rightly or wrongly, as a conservative university for the privileged few. Taking away diversity and inclusion will send out a very negative message and undermine all the good work done.

Alison Duncan Kerr designed, created, and ran the StAIGS, the largest interdisciplinary centre at the university and the new MLitt program attached to it. She did all this on a temporary contract, expecting to be made permanent. Instead, she is now being made redundant.
