The university and the National Tertiary Education Union are in the Fair Work Commission as management appeals a decision it can’t publish student evaluations of teaching

Management wants to publish evaluations of courses but the union argued the university’s enterprise agreement forbids publishing evals that identify staff, which is easily done by anybody who know which academics teach what. Commissioner Johns agreed (CMM November 23).

UNSW appealed in a hearing last week and the parties wait a decision, expected this month.
