No reduction in elected representatives on UNSW Council

This petition was published by Kiraz Janicke on Nov 27, 2011

We the undersigned are concerned at the potential impact of the Universities Governing Bodies Bill 2011 on the structure and composition of the UNSW Council.

Under the new legislative environment, we believe any attempt to reduce the number of elected staff and student representatives on the UNSW Council would pose a serious threat to the collegial governance structure which has been part and parcel of UNSW’s history as a University.

We therefore call for no reduction in the number of elected staff and student representatives on the UNSW Council.

We also call for Alumni representatives to be elected to UNSW Council and not appointed.

In consideration of the significant role of the student body within the university community, we also call for student representation to be increased to two Postgraduate representatives and two Undergraduate representatives.
