Either way, I must speak as a highly paid academic who is expert on all this. Even if you ignore me, I'm trying to do my job. I'm sorry it conflicts with your course designs deeply, but needs must when the devil drives.
I hope you can understand. Thank you for reading and may we cross paths in less technofascist times.
Best,
Olivia

@djoerd @Iris @dingemansemark I of course expect them to ignore this minimally and maximally to report me to my line manager or HR.
