The advertising campaign to encourage people to study at Melbourne University has been launched. What are your thoughts on how the University is 'selling' Growing Esteem?

spending all that cash on a purile advertisement... why not employ more lecturers and tutors, or spend the 100 million on equity scholarships? I'm a propsective uni student for next year- I won't be going to melbourne, I'm going to stufy Law/Arts straight up if I get in- and I won't even have to move out of my parent's place in Geelong- Deakin is just down the road.
I find it disgusting that the University can spend so much on these ad's (that are completely over the top) and on the dodgy phamphlet in the Age (that had made up case studies) when my lecture at uni doesn't even have enough seats for the people who turn up. Shame.
The University needs to Dreamlarge by shifting to 100% green energy, which would make it carbon neutral. Dreaming large involves acting according to the principle of inter-generational equity.
The University of Melbourne is currently undertaking changes that will dramatically reshape higher education in Australia. This blog is a space for members of our community, especially students, to engage in the debate and planning surrounding Growing Esteem.
If you are personally affected by the changes you are welcome to write your experiences on this blog. By sharing your experiences you may help other students facing similar situations. You will also assist your UMSU office bearers in representing students accurately during the Growing Esteem transition.
Alternatively you can email Libby Buckingham, your UMSU education officer at elizabeth.buckingham@union.unimelb.edu.au.
