A screenshot of the VCAM.org.au site

Crikey.com have revealed the UoM have accidentally made live a new VCAM website which aggressively attacks all opinions other than their own, showing the UoM interest in “consulting” is ZERO.The content of the website is only days old (it references the Discussion Paper) and has numerous dollar figure missing (written in the text as “$XX”) showing the UoM writer was spinning arguments without even having the real data at hand.

This flies in the face of UoM assertions the “Discussion Paper” process will be independent and shows the administration’s true colours i.e. they are not interested in anybodies opinion other than their own, and are happy to make arguments without knowing the facts.

UoM’s recklessness still shocks.

Save VCA presents the VCA ‘all schools’ FAIL Ball!

FAIL Ball promises not only to be a great party, but is presented in an effort to further raise awareness and rally support for the school.

Celebrate the achievements of the school while you still can and to make a difference where you’re still able!

The ball is organised and run entirely by the students with the intention that funds raised through the sale of tickets will be used to implement projects in 2010 to help ensure the standard of education we have come to expect from our school. Proceeds from tickets sold will go towards setting up independent monthly tutorial sessions. We will pay – in effect – from our own pockets (and on top of our annual fees) for our sessionals to remain at the school. Suggestions for other projects that benefit VCA students are very much welcome too.

DETAILS!
