Bullying in academia

Bullying in academia is when someone with more power, like a professor or a supervisor, is mean or unkind to someone else. They might do things like talk down to someone, humiliate them in front of other people, criticize their work, or make them feel embarrassed. Bullying can make it hard for people to learn and do their best, and can make school and work very difficult and uncomfortable. It’s important that people understand the effects of bullying and stand up for those being bullied.
