Save Middlesex Philosophy /// Breaking news : Suspension of 2 Professors, 1 Lecturer and 4 Students

Dear Colleagues,

The administration of Middlesex University has decided to suspend students and professors because of their protesting against the closure of the philosophy department – a decision that was broadly criticized nationally and internationally as absurd and self-destructive. Many Colleagues, who had already voiced their unequivocal support for the cause of Middlesex philosophy, are drawing the inevitable consequences from these absurd actions, and break all contacts with an establishment which, if it remains on this path, will lose its right to call itself a University.
We are consequently recommending for you to send in your name or in the name of your universities and philosophical associations new protest letters directly to the Board of Governors (email lists below)

Yours, in philosophical solidarity,

Eric Alliez

  1. Stupid is as stupid does, so what does this stupid act say about the administration of Middlesex University? No philosophy, no credibility.
