Peer review, for free, is part of what we do. BUT, asking me to peer review an article for which the author will have to pay thousands of (US) dollars to have it reachable to an audience... I'm quite tired of it!
Two people who are proper experts... making some things clear
Taxing questions: is National glossing over the likely cost of administering its new ‘revenue measures'? theconversation.com/taxing-q… via @ConversationEDU

Don't get me wrong, comms and marketing are important. It just might be unbalanced. I know as an academic I do a ton of marketing and comms myself.
Thanks Grant, you are absolutely right. Excellent academics, education, experience, we go above and beyond...
Why use 'bailout' language!??? Just stop. It is not a bailout. Universities are not off the hook. And don't forget about banks, seriously.
okay I'm partially relieved, actually looks like some high level planning for funding models is going to go on...temporary injections of money stuff.co.nz/national/educati…
I'm reposting this thread. It's all there. If you want some info on what's really going on re our university thanks @drdeanknight
Pretty grim end to the trimester at @vicuniwgtn. Our community is hurting. Nearly two in every dozen folk will soon lose their jobs, across both academic and professional staff. Programmes will be cut or downsized. Severe austerity will be inevitable.
