I’ve never seen an Indigenous Australian still living in the Stone Age, their claims of “the longest continual living culture” is complete bullshit.

Academic performance should not be mixed with politics.

Good should never have happened in the first 🤬 place

Utter woke rubbish

A complete waste of 15 minutes! Why waste time on that bs! Cut taxpayer funding if that is the rubbish they spend tax dollars on

Is there not compulsory indigenous modules at every uni?

Who exactly is it in this university that is promoting divisive Obama identity politics. This proposal lasted for a few days and then is withdrawn. Common sense prevailed, but why wasn’t there common sense at the start.

After consultation with the CCP it was deemed appropriate!

Yes I've seen the Indigenous People there. Not sure most of them would even notice....
