Such is state of higher education - and media coverage thereof - that few eyebrows are raised (some exceptions) when a retiring pollie with no apparent qualifications, experience, or scholarly inclinations, is shoehorned into a plumb VC position.

Vale Ian Parmenter, an original TV chef, & so much more besides. We were regular correspondents, and mutual admirers of each other’s work. Not to mention Ian’s advice saved my bacon on Xmas Day when I was tasked with baking an entire 7kg salmon. amp.abc.net.au/article/10370…
Really enjoyed this @readings chat with the fabulous @bairdjulia. Hope you do too. Good Easter listening on #BigIdeas @RadioNational with @natashamitchell abc.net.au/listen/programs/b…
