Student suspended for "damaging University league ranking"

Naomi Sugai suspended for criticisms of Anglia Ruskin University that may lower its league ranking

Anglia Ruskin University has suspended postgraduate student Naomi Sugai for complaining about her course, and furthermore threatened libel action for publicising her complaint on YouTube and elsewhere. Security guards have been instructed to bar her from the campus.

The student complained about unavailability of modules, classes cancelled without advance notice and slow, inefficient administration on the MA in management.

Vice chancellor Mike Thorne is concerned that "very poor" reviews from undergraduates have damaged Anglia Ruskin's university league table ranking and has asked staff to advise students positive responses would improve the prestige of their own qualifications. In an unbelievably crass email he instructed staff "It does occur to me that we need to ensure students are aware of the relation between the grades they give and, thanks to the league tables, the perceived value of their degrees."
