I’m just a bit sickened, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised, by how eager these students are to turn on their supposed friend. What a brave woman.

Godspeed Thea. It is like a breath of fresh air to see at least some young women refrain from grovelling and centering professional mimicry. No-one was like this when I was at university, it was like "Repeat the mantra or drown" / "Feminism is universal", and my all-time favourite, B-E K-I-N-D

When finishing university, I would ask whether I could keep the carved door, as a badge of courage.

I hope the pathetic little toe rags were disciplined for defacing uni property.

CUSW is amazing! It shouldn’t need to be brave to take the position that they do, but here we are, and I’m pleased that these young women are taking a stand. It really is time that more academics stood with them.

on a side note, does anyone know if this is an issue at all Cambridge colleges? Are there any oases of common sense?

Thanks @junipery . Yes it's sickening.
Her courage is amazing. Really hope the students in CUSW are supporting each other as the bullying is off the scale. It's as bad at other Unis too, but to speak up with a background like this shows exceptional bravery.
