Although the accord proposes changes in the university workforce, disability is only discussed in relation to students. Although disabled staff are uniquely positioned to understand and support disabled students, there is no plan to develop the disabled workforce.

A Statement from the Board of Overland Literary Journal

overland.org.au/2024/02/statem…

Note from Kerry who was staying in Enmore park.

‘We’re all one unfortunate circumstance away from being in the same position’.

Can't helping thinking back on all the American academics who were so upset about the alleged threat to academic freedom posed by BDS. What are they saying now?

Going through my records, I've now had three backpay notices from being a sessional - totalling thousands of dollars.
And this is just what they've admitted to.
Imagine how much they'd've got away with over the decades. What other industry would be allowed to keep going unchanged

Surely now of all times is the time for those who have been wavering to join BDS.
