Incredibly sad news. The BA is a foundational degree for any university and was the first degree offered in Australia. BA graduates include many of our most influential citizens. Students in regional areas should have access to this degree and all the opportunities it unlocks.

On the teacher crisis. A long thread. I have been reluctant to speak up since taking leave from a permanent teaching position in the Vic secondary system 2.5 years ago - by chance just before CoVID.

An important message for オーストラリア大使館 Australia in Japan . About 25 Australians are trapped in Narita Airport due to cancelled Jetstar flight JQ0012. Due to Covid restrictions we’re not allowed to leave the airport or enter hotels. We have no food, water or bedding. We’d appreciate assistance.

So I've just learnt that Sydney settlers used to call wattle birds, 'gill birds'. The familiar feels so strange!

Trove's funding runs out in July 2023 – and the National Library is threatening to pull the plug. It's time for a radical overhaul theconversation.com/troves-funding… via The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand

The reputational damage this will do to Australian Catholic University is enormous. Who would consider taking up a job at an institution where management launch strategic initiatives only to close them down a few years later, treat staff with contempt and force them to fight for a handful of jobs?

My first dataset archived! 'Counties in the colony of New South Wales in 1850 (including the later states of Victoria and Queensland)' - perhaps a niche interest, but something that I would have found very useful in 2021... hdl.handle.net/1959.4/102064 Thanks UNSW Library!

**Tutors needed!** If you or someone you know is in Sydney and is interested in tutoring work, please do DM me. My colleague Theresa Ardler (Wreck Bay) and I are looking for more tutors for F2F classes, and possibly some online ones too. notredameaus
