Lynda Carter Actually, you’re an inspiration Lynda! 🙏
Before I became vice president and before I was elected as U.S. senator, I was the attorney general of California. Before that, I was a prosecutor who took on predators, fraudsters, and cheaters. So I know Donald Trump’s type. In this campaign, I will put my record against his.
Why is govt, and why are university execs, so *afraid* of empowering academia? Empowering the people who actually teach, research, and serve & who have the expertise to make these things world-class? futurecampus.com.au/2024/07/30/hum… Australian Academy of the Humanities AHA (Australia) Save Australian Universities Jason Clare MP
Life ambition ACHIEVED! It's been a looong time since I was watching Paul Higgins tell me about the Soviet collapse/Yugoslav wars in the early '90s, but I've BEEN INTERVIEWED FOR 'BEHIND THE NEWS'! 😆 ABC News Uni of New England #CartoonNation abc.net.au/btn/high/polit…
Totally. Jason Clare MP and Anthony Albanese’s crucial new legislation is being perverted by uni execs who are allergic to employing people permanently. Long-term casuals are being cut off totally, or limited to one short fixed term contact to ensure no continuity NTEU Save Australian Universities
Full credit to NTEU La Trobe Branch staff who simultaneously managed to spruik their world-class programs AND protect La Trobe University from liability re. false advertising of their programs. And all while voluntarily giving up their Sunday. This is how you Save Australian Universities👇 futurecampus.com.au/2024/08/06/la-…

Enjoying the nominative determinism at the Olympics David Astle - Hannah Green in the golf is nice. But women’s climbing has a silver medallist from Boulder, Colorado, and the commentator was Petra Klinger…(!)

What have Australia’s universities to show for the wasted boom in student numbers post-2000; failure to reduce reliance on govt. $$; epic salaries of VCs & obsession with new capital works? A constant state of CRISIS Hannah Forsyth she/her 🍉 Save Australian Universities NTEU afr.com/work-and-caree…
Tonight, Kamala Harris showed the world what I have known to be true. She is ready on day one to be President and represents the best of America. Let’s get to work.

Superb stuff from MattGolding Cartoons! I reckon Mark Hamill and Kamala Harris would more than love this one. 🇺🇸 🤣
Superb stuff from Hannah Forsyth she/her 🍉 - Unis tend to employ addicts like me! Whose work is also my hobby, and therefore which I will do in my own time for no pay. I used to think this was the ‘new monasticism’, but it’s more than that… Save Australian Universities NTEU theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
