A highly concerning newspaper report here:

And thread here:

Yes. Anyone with a daughter considering Cardiff should be aware of this.

It’s appalling. As a personal tutor, I’ve heard many stories from my female students about everyday and awful sexual harassment.

They don’t need a misogynist sexually violent man in their home.

Another problem at Cardiff University:

I went to Cardiff and lived in Talybont. This is concerning. My daughter is now at Cardiff but it’s one of the other ones so she lives in a private student rental. I hope she’s safe 🙈

@GinWithChocolate thanks for sharing but can't see the original message. Cardiff is on my DDs second choice she is about to put her UCAS applications through I am very much interested in finding out more- I am guessing he doesn't hold that job anymore

Yes, @Selok , unsurprisingly it looks like the member of staff who posted the offensive, deeply misogynist tweet has now set their account to private. He was/is a member of Cardiff University's Engagement and Participation team, if I remember rightly. It was vile. You'll get the gist of it from the replies to the person who posted it to highlight it.

Also, here is a new thread from someone asking about Cardiff University for next year:

@GinWithChocolate thanks so much, we crossed Cardiff off the list, no way I am sending my DD there and she doesn't want to go either - what a shame and it is almost unreal! Shocking
