UMSU is in The Age 📣
.
Teaching and research should not be influenced by the highest bidder.
.
Remember all the staff who have lost their jobs recently? And all the subjects that have been cut? Supporting staff and investing in educational programs should be the priority, instead of pouring millions into this right-wing think tank.
