I don't know a great deal about her, but I do know I don't like what I've seen of her. So I'm glad she's being pushed out. Just being petty I suppose but such is life at times.

    Long overdue.

    The council said it had agreed pro-chancellor Larry Marshall would act as chancellor until a permanent appointment was made.

    I assume that means a supporter of Julie Bishop? Alright then: do it again, ANU. Power to people.

    Larry is indeed on the naughty list in the widespread staff sentiment.

    I hope the external committee to appoint a new chancellor acts quickly and whoever they choose works to implement the needed governance reform as their top priority.

    If that occurs, I don't expect any of the remaining appointed council to remain very long.

    I saw a comment on this somewhere:

    "Good to know anus opening up to a fresh approach"

    😆

    It will take someone big to fill ANU’s vacancy.
