We, the undersigned, students of the UCL English Department, support the students who are currently peacefully occupying the Jeremy Bentham Room, and their right to protest.
We believe that the defense of Arts and Humanities degrees against cuts is essential, and therefore support resistance to such measures.

The volume of support has now reached a level that necessitates a formal response from the Department Board of Studies. I am currently drafting a letter to summarize these demands and will request an immediate meeting with the department leadership to present your collective position.

Finally some action. My classes are getting bigger every year and the resources are disappearing. Its not okay.
totally behind you guys. keep fighting the good fight.
so proud of everyone currently inside. stay strong.
The cuts are ridiculous. Humanities are the heart of this uni and they keep slashing the budget like it doesnt matter.
Solidarity from the history dept! Dont let them walk all over the arts.

The JBR occupation is the only way anyone is actually going to listen. Good on you for taking a stand.
