Good point Angela and Anita. There are some great colleagues here but it is disappointing to see so little BAME representation in both sub panels.

Great point, Anita Howarth (MeCCSA list), about BAME representation on REF sub-panel 34 (Communication, Cultural and Media Studies). In addition to sub-panel 34, film, television and screen are covered by sub-panel 33. This has an admirable 50/50 gender balance but fails on BAME, given healthier percentages within the discipline at large. Why? How can we resolve this?

Thanks for circulating the list, Anita

I am a little confused. Are there no BME professors involved in the criteria-phase of the panel?
