University of Glasgow to bring in 'respect advisers' as half of its ethnic minority students report racial harassment Exclusive University of Glasgow to bring in 'respect advisers' as half of its ethnic minority students report racial harassment THE University of Glasgow is to bring in new 'respect advisers' after issuing an apology over racism. Its own survey found that half of all ethnic minority students reported being harassed between two and five times since beginning studies. Their report found the survey results contrasted to the "handful" of racial harassment cases captured by university processes. The analysis found there was a reluctance to report such harassment because of a lack of confidence that such incidents would be treated seriously combined with a fear of reprisals from fellow students and staff.
