We’re aware @ucl is trialling a privately provided attendance monitoring system (SEATs) that boasts capacity for:

a) phone tracking
b) facial recog ‘all-seeing-eye’ in classrooms
c) one place storage of attendance & mental health info abt students

#SurveilanceUniversity
@ucl --the system has all these capacities but not known which ucl will use (they haven't ruled anything out)
--ucl private contractors tried fingerprint tracking on outsourced staff recently
--storage of mental health info was presented to the SU as part of a wellbeing package....
--it is a wholesale response to ucl facing criticism for picking out students on visas for "special" treatment (public identification for attendance etc.,)
--now *everyone* will be able to be surveyed at the same time
