Listen "Turning universities into sausage factories - keep them poor, so students pay more and learn less...."

Episode Synopsis

Jacques and Jennifer talk about proposed changes to university funding, with attacks on the humanities, arts and social sciences to make people ‘job-ready’ and create docile citizens. Meanwhile, having lost the 'lucrative' international trade in students, things can only get worse... especially as it seems that it's all directed to privatisation of what needs to remain a public 'duty' to educate (rather than 'train') the next generation of citizens!
