Do you want someone who has never passed a biology exam performing a heart operation? Or someone who has never passed a maths exam designing bridges or flood mitigation systems?

The Equality and Human Rights Commission maintains that universities have a legal duty to uphold free speech.
Buoyed by the NSW Education Minister’s promise to “ensure that we match education funding to outcomes”, an ambitious parliamentary inquiry was established earlier this year to investigate “measurement and outcomes-based funding for schools.”
My advice, if you are a conservative, is save yourself the trouble and self censor. The Marxist lecturer is on a moral one and there is no room for disagreement. Bide your time, get your degree and speak out afterwards.

One reason for this is that the large numbers of Chinese students at Australian universities are starting to turn their financial clout into political power.

Labour is to abolish private schools. There will be howls of anguish from conservatives and even some liberals. But the policy is merely the logical next step in Labour’s social justice agenda.

If the most successful American public universities are any guide, when it comes to international students, 10% adds diversity to the student body, 15% is the maximum reasonable level, and 20% represents internationalisation gone wild.
