The naked lecturer (Rousse)
My undergraduate class was very polite. Nobody said a word when I turned up to teach completely naked.
Exam scripts and snogging in the School office (Rousse)
There were strange goings-on in the School office. Admin staff were marking exam scripts with the authority of (retired) lecturer RK. ‘It’s easy enough to check that the numbers at the end of the calculations are the same as in … Continue reading
Academic is owner of magnificent mansion on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne (Rousse)
