Uni Adelaide looking for a “true leader”

Uni Adelaide begins recruiting for a new VC, to replace the departed in disgrace Peter Rathjen (CMM July 21).

The process follows university council asking the campus community to rank the attributes they want in a VC (CMM September 29) – which they did, with 720 completing a survey

Chancellor Catherine Branson says the new VC must be “a true leader.” That should make the recruiters’ job easier.
