Deakin U’s Future Economy Precinct, at the Waurn Ponds campus (CMM October 30) is now fully funded, under the Geelong City Deal struck by the Victorian and federal government’s yesterday. There is also a plan for a convention centre, which is good, except that it will be on the site of a 540-space car park at the university’s Waterfront campus.  University management was quick to advise staff yesterday that there will be replacement parking for staff and students.  And it will be the Geelong, not Deakin, convention centre.
