The University has said that they are &#8220;committed to avoiding compulsory redundancies&#8221; and are working closely with schools to minimise impact on students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9485e7e30fa93b996fde9a4f485f30f2 wp-block-paragraph\">Louis Josa, was a part of a small group who wrote an open letter to University Vice Chancellor Koen Lamberts. Which has since received over 865 signatures from students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-42ebace69b40ba5553717e9f6e8db536 wp-block-paragraph\">Mr Josa said: \u201cStudents are still at risk of having more industrial action, which is obviously a last resort. As far as I know, their strike mandate is still open, so we could get more strikes in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Video news story; Louis\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IUVWv3nWAHE?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>University of Sheffield student is raising awareness of compensation for students who have suffered lost teaching due to strikes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":811,"featured_media":72293,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[21,82,2145,103],"tags":[38,2207,2214,436],"class_list":["post-72237","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-top-story","category-university","category-watch","tag-sheffield","tag-uni-strikes","tag-university-news","tag-university-of-sheffield"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
