Higher education policy paladin, Andrew Norton, has an hon doctorate from Deakin U, announcedTuesday.

Accepting it, Mr Norton spoke about his work and made a passionate (well, as close-to passionate as he is ever likely to get) case for demand driven funding, “without it this graduation tonight would well have been smaller than it actually is.” He added, that he is working to have it reinstated – CMM wonders with whom.
