I wonder why #JasonClareMP hasn’t bothered to pick the low-hanging fruit, given his opposition to the scheme when #Labor was the Opposition.
“While the government is pursuing new funding and enrolment policies, it is yet to act on one of the most controversial parts of the current system — the Job Ready Graduates (JRG) scheme.”

Hmmmm… there’s going to be a whole lot of chinwagging about these proposed changes to #TertiaryEducationGovernance and #Funding I wager. While robust discussion and consultation is a must for any successful change, we will only truly know its worth in its implementation.
“Under the legislation, which was introduced into parliament late last week, universities will be given a hard cap on how many domestic students they can enrol under a new "managed growth" funding system.
Those numbers will be negotiated with a new bureaucracy called the Australian Tertiary Education Commission (ATEC), which will oversee funding and sector performance.”

I have a daughter PdD candidate in human biology research (medical) atm and I can vouch for the fact that she woudn’t be doing it if it wasn’t for financial help from her mother and me.
A dreadful situation and a indictment on our neoliberal govt. I wonder how many researchers counciller remuneration could fund.

Agreed. Good news.
And, given that last time I looked up to 40% of the Australian workforce holds a degree, that first degree ought to be free — delivered as a social service to the workforce (to keep up with recruitment requirements) to the benefit of productivity and the economy.Why can’t we all see the truth of this #JasonClareMP ?

Here is a headline (a report title to be precise) which would cause no surprise in the private sector. This sort of thing goes on all the times in our capitalist markets. But to have it label a report on the financial books of a not-for-profit PUBLIC institution is the epitome of #Corruption #Ineptitude #Mismanagement and #Buffoonery

Is there anything else required to convince everyone that the issue and the problems with ANU’s alleged financial troubles is anything but financial trouble?
Squarely, this misapprehension is a direct result of #Mismanagement and #AccrualAccounting neither of which ought to be experienced by an education institution.
Time for the #Education #Minister Jason Clare to dismiss the council outright and implement the recommended fixes that were commended to him Including scrapping the #JobReadyGraduate #Morrison crap!
“If we believe the auditor, there is no crisis at the ANU. To be clear, as a government owned, not-for-profit entity, the ANU is under no pressure to maximise its profits so that it can maximise dividends paid to shareholders. On the contrary, when the ANU made a surplus of $89.9 million in 2024 it did so by spending less money on its students, staff and community than it received.” (Source: The Australian Institute)

“Australian musicians are among the team putting pressure on ANU Chancellor Julie Bishop and the ANU Council to abandon their plans to dismantle the School of Music. The team have called on Bishop to halt job cuts, continue its performance and composition majors, and maintain one-on-one music tuition in an open letter.
The open letter was written by the newly formed School of Music Advocacy Roundtable and signed by over 40 high-profile supporters.”
This is a bit of ‘Johnny-come-lately’, esp after the CSO had already made its position very clear on any thought of closing the #ANU #SchoolOfMusic by #JulieBishop ‘s Council Fiefdom. But any additional pressure is most welcomed. Keep it up guys, let’s pile it on.
