My PhD advisor, Fred Piper, has died. Fred was a mentor, a colleague, and a friend. Like many, he guided my career - in ways both visible and invisible. Let us be inspired by his example: it is possible to be highly successful and remain kind to everyone around you. 🙏

Here's my best attempt at illustrating why this #USS valuation looks to be built on sand, plus a bonus reflection on where things took a wrong turn a decade or so ago. medium.com/ussbriefs/how-…
Some financial background to the crisis besetting our university. Formerly one of the UK’s leading pre-1992 universities, the University of Leicester made significant investments in expansion and update of its facilities pre-Covid, and was in a great deal of trouble even then.

I haven't seen it mentioned publicly yet, but there's an extra dimension to this crisis for English universities: debt covenants, particularly debt cover ratios & minimum surplus requirements.
