While my time at the LSE has been characterised by a certain discourse which has focused on the key words “student satisfaction”, not once have I felt that this institution cares at all about its students. It feels like the only reason student satisfaction matters to them is because it is an embarrassment for them to be so low in the tables, not because they actually care about students’ wellbeing. There has consistently been little effort to address what I feel are the roots of low student satisfaction: a preoccupation with prestigious and highly lucrative jobs, a complete disregard for mental health, and an unsafe, unwelcoming and competitive environment for those who feel lost and need help. The only thing that has stopped me from giving it 1 star is because my department has been largely different. The anthropology department feels like a community, a small haven in an otherwise unfriendly university.
