The University Vice-Chancellors have spat the dummy over the proposed extension of the stident allowance scheme. So they should. As we posted last night the real issue should be the underfunding of universities, the result of 9 years of neglect by Labour. The $210 million should be invested in the universities so that they can maintain standards of excellence in research and give students the best possible education.
Well done PM, Victoria University students don't trust you, and you have just lost the support of the universities.
