Student review [#82886] for Archaeology
at Leiden University

This faculty in particular only serves the interest of the upper middle class and the rich.

It screams DEI and inclusivity, but the message remains hollow, especially since most of these groups include individuals, who have said xenophobic and other discriminatory things about other students and staff in the past. DEI should celebrate all different diversities and not just a single issue one.

There is an extrem lack of equal opportunities its always just opportunities for the same old people. How can the same person hold 3-4 positions in the faculty, and yet call the faculty a heaven of “equal opportunities”?
To no surprise its just the already wealthy who get every opportunity.
They eve created a grassroots funding system where the same old rich students, received yet another opportunity….
Its so cool that you give already rich students more money, instead of addressing structural issues within the faculty.

And the worst thing is you leave traces of evidence everywhere, you even suck at false advertising.

Theres a lot of hypocrisy in leiden and many students of vulnerable backgrounds are being ignored, slandered and even held back career wise. Yet the perpetrators can still remain in the drivers seat. The perpetrators are both students and staff.

The administration/study advisors is terrible and quite frankly useless since everything has just become automated emails, there are no mentors and supervisors only like to serve students who are wealthy. A student could die and they would not care if they are still alive.

The building is pretty but it had some leaks in the past.

Overall after 2 suicide attempts thanks to their constant harassment and slander. I would give this faculty less than one star.

Leiden archaeology is only for the rich conservatives who had failed so hard in their own economic system, that they had to enter a public university (with no entry barriers) because they couldn’t compete with people that applied to go to Oxford or Cambridge . It truly is a neoliberal university.
