I was astounded to learn that Exeter is considering making drastic cuts to their excellent programs in Archaeology, among others. I have long worked with many excellent professors and students from Exeter.

Something deeply troubling & shocking is happening at Exeter University*, where a mass cull of staff is planned, even though it's in surplus. No good justifications given. @jamesgdyke.info provides the details: www.technosphere.earth/the-bonfire-...

The bonfire of the humanities
150 academic posts at the University of Exeter are to be cut, most in the humanities but also in social sciences, engineering and environmental sciences

Many people who have lived in or visited Exeter will be familiar with the Double Locks!

This photo from our University Archive shows the St Luke's College rowing club outside the pub in 1911.

Sepia-toned photograph of a long row of students standing outside the Double Locks pub. Several rowing boats are moored in front of them, and some students are sitting in the boats. Two young children are also visible on the left hand side. The caption underneath reads '"The Rowing Club" 1911.'. A rusty paperclip has left a mark at the top of the photograph.

Good afternoon to everyone, but especially to all the snails, for today is their special day!

Peep very closely at this map from 1575 - and you will spot a teeny-tiny snail!

An opened atlas showing a hand-painted sixteenth-century map of Suffolk. Detail from a hand-painted, sixteenth-century map. It is focusing on a decorative part of the map, below framed text containing information about the map (not visible in this image). At the bottom edge of the frame is a leafy stalk upon which sits a very tiny snail. There is a small section of land along the coast at the bottom of the image, which includes the town Brandon in Suffolk.
