Groupthink and the University Left
|
Andrew Bolt from the Herald-Sun and Professor Rob Watts from RMIT
University debate: “Groupthink and the University Left” Friday 25th of November, 12:30 to 2:00 RMIT University Storey Hall Swanston St Presented by the School of Social Science and Planning Columnist Andrew Bolt from the Herald-Sun has recently criticised an RMIT teacher for forwarding an email to students giving them details of an upcoming environmental protest. In a later column Bolt was again critical of an academic who postponed classes so that students could go to a protest rally. What then is the role of Universities in public life? What should be the role of academics, staff and students in today’s universities? BE THERE! |

Debate

The Electrical Trades Union have taken the initiative of organising a great debate immediately after the mass rally on November 15th on the theme of:
'Who represents Workers? - ALP? Greens? Independents? A New Party?'. Speakers will be from the ETU; Steve Jolly Socialist Party Councillor; Joan Doyle, the State Secretary of the posties division of the Communication Workers Union; and Lyn Dixon, the Chairperson of the residents association at the largest public housing estate in Victoria, the North Richmond estate. The meeting will be held at the Comrades Bar in Swanston St, Carlton South (situated between the ETU and CFMEU offices) at 1.30pm on the afternoon of Tuesday, 15th November, that is immediately after the mass workers rally on that day. |
