Episode Details

Adelaide University faces a $90 million shortfall after missing international student enrollment targets by 40%, prompting a cautious three-year recovery plan instead of drastic cuts. The Vice-Chancellor calls the situation “worrying” but insists on maintaining investment in staff and students while boosting recruitment. Union leaders blame the merger for readiness issues and suggest using reserves and cutting consultants rather than slashing jobs — which they say would crush morale. Meanwhile, a major win for staff: a new enterprise agreement improves workload protections, signaling a push toward ethical, sustainable university practices.
