My wife sent me the following sentence from an email she received:
"My dad was on Open University BBC late night TV when I was a kid as the
classic bearded wool jumper wearing maths type lecturer!"

Some time ago I posted a Private Eye cartoon that featured a stereotype of OU lecturers. I have discovered that there is at least one more cartoon that makes use of this view.
Thanks to Mike McNulty for sharing this.
I saw this cartoon in the twitter feed of Fernando Rosell (@RossellAguilar). I think it is interesting in showing how stereotypes can exist for all sorts of groups. This is fairly harmless but, of course, stereotypes can often be damaging.
