Educators and Students Oppose Assault on Australian University Jobs
Educators and students are speaking out against the pro-business, militarist assault on Australian university jobs.
"At university, they push us to attract industry funds, and they do not encourage critical thinking in students. It shouldn't be about job training all the time!”
The Committee for Public Education (CFPE) and the International Youth and Students for Social Equality (IYSSE) held a public meeting opposing mass job cuts at Australian universities.
- 3,500 jobs have been destroyed at universities across the country over the past 10 months.
- Many more jobs are slated to be axed.
The speakers explained that this is part of a broader transformation of the sector, aimed at subordinating it to the needs of corporations and the military.
