Australian Medical Students' Association president Michael Bonning said he personally knew of parents who were mortgaging their homes for their children's education. Skyrocketing degree prices have angered student unions, which are calling for a revision of all fees, including costs at private institutions such as Bond University. Even medical students who utilise the Higher Education Contribution Scheme at UQ will have to find more than $55,000 if they do a Bachelor of Science, Agriculture, Economics or Engineering first. UQ law students going on to medicine will have to pay back about $68,000 under HECS. Federal Education Minister Julia Gillard said the number of degrees costing more than $100,000 would diminish next year, when the Government abolished full-fee paying domestic undergraduate and bachelor places in public universities.
Nominated councillors interview Anu, Harjinder
It seems that the nine nominated councillors of the Municipal Corporation have taken it upon themselves to choose the next Mayor of the city. The nine nominated by the UT Administration to assist the MC general house to carry out different activities are taking their vote for the post of Mayor too seriously. They held interviews of the candidates for the post of Mayor, Senior Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayor today. The purpose of the interview was to assess the elected councillors of the MCC. Ex-Mayors Anu Chatrath and Harjinder Kaur, along with the rest of their panel, today had to give a brief account of their profile, agenda and party manifesto to all nine nominated councillors. The interview session, which was held at the residence of nominated councillor Dr Amrit Bolaria, was followed by lunch, but not for those interviewed.
