Helen Bartlett comes in from the cold

After four Ballarat winters Helen Bartlett left Federation U on Friday, preparatory to starting as VC of  University of the Sunshine Coast

The vice chancellor leaves Federation U less fiscally frozen than when she arrived. The Victorian Auditor General reports the university had a net result of -2.54 per cent in 2017 (she started that May). Last year its margin was 8.99 per cent, just behind Monash U and Uni Melbourne.
