- Loving Australia does not mean denying its history. You don’t get to cherry-pick only the comfortable parts and call it progress. Loving Australia means wanting a national day that includes everyone, not demanding silence from those it excludes. #ChangeTheBloodyDateAlready

- Reposted by Prof. Felipe GusmãoOn the #InternationalDayofEducation, we’re resharing this Essay drawing on the radical vision of Jean-Jacques Rousseau to ask what we really mean by learning. Is education merely a system for transmitting knowledge and preparing people for work or could it be something more expansive and humane?

- Every year, on my birthday, I watch Koyaanisqatsi. It has become sort of a tradition. I first watched this film when I was a teenager, and it had a huge impact on me. I invite you to join me and watch #Koyaanisqatsi today, and think about what it means to live "a life out of balance"

- Reposted by Prof. Felipe GusmãoAn issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.
