Notes from the VC’s Desk: Direct from the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Brigid Heywood this week
This has been one of those weeks when my inner ‘swan’ featured more than other latent genetic ancestry. With some 60 odd per cent of shared avian DNA ruffling my proverbial feathers, I was overwhelmed by a sense of gentle gliding across critical and known...

Notes from the VC’s Desk: Direct from the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Brigid Heywood this week
Another week has passed by in a blink and yet so much has happened (granted in my small sphere). The hiatus across higher education is a topic of current national interest as the sector will likely shed some 21,000 jobs (more than the 9,000 projected loss from Qantas,...
