Digital Neologisms

Amy Butterworth explores the world of emojis and their potential engulfing of the literary world as we know it The ever-iconic Gina Linetti from ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ made an attempt at incorporating emoji-speak into her verbal lexicon: “the English language cannot capture the depth and complexity of my thoughts”, she says. Thus, a ‘winky-face’ 😉 here […]

A Case For: Political Correctness

In the past few weeks, the debate around political correctness has once again been brought into the spotlight. This follows the news of Kevin Hart stepping down from hosting the Oscars after the backlash against past homophobic tweets, and of radio stations banning the Christmas song, ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’, citing its problematic lyrics in […]

Talking heads

In 2017, it may seem as if work towards reducing mental health stigma has come a long way. Just take World Mental Health Day as an example: the huge amount of people sharing their support may give the allusion that, as a society, we have overcome the stigma surrounding people who suffer with mental illness. […]

If it’s a Scottish play, why is it in German? Dimitra Mina reviews the Residenztheater’s Production of Macbeth.

I ought to preface this review with the statement “I do not speak any German”. Although one of my personal goals for my year abroad is to learn German, at this current junction of the year I can order a cup of tea and thank people, and that would be the end of it. However, whilst […]

Tolerence, Trudeau, and Multiculturalism in Canada

In the weeks leading up to my four month exchange programme in Montreal, I was made aware of Canadian liberalism; Canada’s global reputation as a leading liberal country has grown hugely in the last few years. ‘Trudeaumania’ was a common talking point amongst my friends, who are thrilled with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decidedly egalitarian approach […]

Feminist Friday: the gendered language barrier

In the globalised, 21st century world, traditional language barriers have all but lost their significance and digital advancements have made communication easier than ever. So now we can have a dialogue, it’s time to break down the repressive lexical and semantic walls erected by our ancestors that form the gendered language barrier and to make […]

One Third Stories: an interview with Alex Somervell

With the term beginning to come an end, there’s a growing sense of panic among final year students, at least judging by recent top Yaks on Yik Yak and from talking to friends and coursemates. With summer term likely to pass in a flurry of exam stress, which for most is over by late May, their time […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
