C'mon Rachel - don't you remember who trashed the University system
first? Remember *****DAWKINS*****?
I was Professor of Law at the time (No flames, please!). During the
"reforms" my admin load tripled, my class load increased 50%. At the
same time, the Admin staff at the University of Sydney increased
25%. The "reforms" were a failure even when measured by their own
standards. When measured by anyone who gives a damn about education,
they were a total disaster.
Anyway, it's fun lurking on this list - I switched to Linux over three
years ago since I couldn't stand M$ freezing up every few hours.
Cheers,
Alan
