Have you voted for your inspiring leader? | Web version             22 January 2014 Share       Edward Snowden – the world-famous whistleblower – is allegedly in the running to be Glasgow University rector. In other news, less surprising to some, at least 11 universities are threatening to dock a day's pay from any staff taking part in a two-hour walkout this week. You'll be (hopefully) excited to hear that our live chats are back for 2014. Join us this Friday (24 January) from 12-2pm GMT to discuss the future of engineering in higher education. We've got a fab expert panel lined up, including Sheffield PVC Mike Hounslow, president of EPSRC Dave Delpy, and Meg Munn MP. The debate is open to all – click here for more information on how to take part.
