If he thinks that's not trivialising mental illness, what is it?

It is always cheaper for politicians to hurt the people they told you to fear than to help the people you love. And it’s always a terrible deal to accept.

Unpopular #academic opinion:
I rather enjoy the ethics process. It has a clear structure. Following this helps make sense of the chaos inside my head.
Incidentally, that does not stop me from procrastinating whenever I need to complete an application.

We have all had quite enough of 'communications, brand and reputation management in higher education'. Reputations are won and lost on the basis of excellence in scholarship, excellence in teaching, and being excellent to each another. That's the idea of a university defined.
