A little fun from the FT. Apparently they don't care for American paper sizes in comparison to ISO 216 and I appreciate the poetry with which they express this. 😀
EDIT: A kind person has provided this link ft.com/content/bb9bf7c6-1785-4… although much of the other language employed smacks of desperation to claim credibility as a younger person and is quite cringeworthy in its use.

I have a lot of sympathy for students who see themselves getting bad value from their degrees & find trying to balance staying financially solvent & studying a sometimes impossible challenge;
But I also have sympathy with university staff trying to encourage in-person attendance (knowing as I do how degraded on-line learning can be).
Sadly, this crisis in higher education is driven by external forces that are pitting students & staff against each other.

It's simply against the law, at least in Germany.
They have to give you access to the account if you can provide the necessary documents.
You will not be able to make new purchases.

Henrietta “Etty” Darwin was born in 1843, the eldest of Charles Darwin’s daughters to reach adulthood.
She became a key editor of her father’s scientific writing, most notably The Descent of Man & Selection in Relation to Sex, published in 1871.
Charles Darwin considered Etty a “dear coadjutor, fellow-labourer” & lively member of an intellectually stimulating household. cam.ac.uk/research/news/unpubl… #science #HistoryRemix
