SAVE VCA MELBOURNE UNIVERSITY: "WANING MYSTIQUE"
blogs.theage.com.au
Melbourne University is longer the automatic first choice for many prospective students, writes Erica Cervini.
SAVE VCA 16/11/09 The Age / Education - "FACING THE MUSIC - Melbourne University has launched a discussion paper to begin the consultation process on the future of the Victorian College of the Arts and Music, but critics remain wary. "Many people have shared their views with us over the past months, and that's been interesting,..." said faculty dean Sharman Pretty last week in a moment of understatement."
SAVE VCA ELITE SPORT EDUCATION GETS FUNDING REVIEW (wheres the review for elite arts education?)
www.news.com.au
FEDERAL funding for sports should be maintained at current levels supplemented by additional money if targets are reached, an independent panel has recommended.
Jenny Allen Today's Age, Page 12: Facing the Music, Sharman Pretty's understatement: "Many people have shared their views with us over the past months, and that's been interesting."
Jenny Allen Adam Schwab of Crikey: Melbourne Muddle: elite students turning away from law in droves
www.crikey.com.au
Under the Melbourne Model, undergraduate students are able to undertake 17 undergraduate courses -- in 2007, students were able to choose from more than 90 different courses, writes Adam Schwab.
www.theage.com.au
CRITICS have accused the University of Melbourne of ''nobbling'' consultation on the future of the Victorian College of the Arts and Music, with members of a new review panel to be selected by vice-chancellor Glyn Davis and faculty dean Sharman Pretty.
SAVE VCA
Dean Pretty sells the Discussion Paper.
Somewhat laughable Sharman believes the "independent chair" that she
and VC Glyn Davis will appoint is "independent" simply because the
person is outside of the University?!
Also we had a collective cough when Sharman said this Discussion Paper
was always going to happen as part of th...eir "strategic" approach. If
that were true surely it would have happened in 2007 before they
slashed and burned? And perhaps not ‘coincidentally’ after 7 months of
protests.
Dean Pretty also forgot to mention there is nothing about her in the
Discussion Paper i.e. a discussion that perhaps her 'talents' may not
be the best fit for VCA.
This Discussion Paper is sounding more and more like heavily-PRd,
subjective, box-ticking.
