Julie Bishop bows to pressure, resigning as ANU chancellor

You won't be missed. Don't come back and take the rest of the appointed council with you.

Long overdue.

The council said it had agreed pro-chancellor Larry Marshall would act as chancellor until a permanent appointment was made.

I assume that means a supporter of Julie Bishop? Alright then: do it again, ANU. Power to people.

Larry is indeed on the naughty list in the widespread staff sentiment.

I hope the external committee to appoint a new chancellor acts quickly and whoever they choose works to implement the needed governance reform as their top priority.

If that occurs, I don't expect any of the remaining appointed council to remain very long.

It will take someone big to fill ANU’s vacancy.

I saw a comment on this somewhere:

"Good to know anus opening up to a fresh approach"
