The EAG presented a gift to Jagose: an oversized cardboard replica of a pair of scissors.

A Swiftian approach to ending the suffering of staff and students amidst proposed education cuts.

Staff will be required to fight amongst themselves for newly created positions that may have a lower pay.

Over 270 staff and students attended the second Student General Meeting of the year.

A Student General Meeting against the Arts cuts is scheduled for 27 October.

Enrolment numbers will determine what will be cut, merged or otherwise diminished.

The LTSU was forced to make all 22 of its staff redundant after La Trobe cuts its SSAF funding by 88% in favour of a new ‘apolitical’ organisation.

Courses may be rationalised and academic staff will face a review “relative to revenue generation” under the new proposal.

The cuts are a part of a restructuring that has already seen the merging of five faculties into three colleges last November.

The ten universities’ total spending on redundancies surpassed the $286.6 million decline in revenue from international students last year.
