In a defence of arts and humanities departments in the Nine newspapers last week that flagged concerns about their survival, La Trobe University emeritus professor of politics Judith Brett argued commonwealth government animosity was the principal reason these departments across Australia are in such a parlous state.
Brett criticises the conservative government for its “deep-seated hostility” towards the humanities and attacks last year’s decision by the then education minister Dan Tehan to increase fees for the majority of degrees as “bizarre”.
After noting what she sees as the “misogynist, sexist and bullying culture” of the national parliament (most of it involving coalition MPs and their staff) Brett goes on to imply arts degrees represent a remedy as they instil empathy by allowing students to put themselves in “another person’s shoes”.

“I’m very pleased that the board has selected Michael Honea as its next CEO,” said Reynolds, who took over as CEO for Gary Marks in 2011. “Michael will lead GRMC to continued success in caring for the citizens of Somervell County and the surrounding areas.”
The Coin Analyst: Have Circulating Commemorative Programs Outlasted Their Welcome?

major new bill that will create several new series of circulating commemorative quarters and other coins has just become law. Unfortunately, it risks repeating several of the mistakes of other recent coin programs of this type.
In the annals of American numismatics, many circulating coin programs have played a key role in stimulating greater interest in the hobby and increasing the ranks of collectors. This includes, of course, coins such as
Lincoln cents,
Washington quarters, and
Walking Liberty half dollars, among others – sets of which at one time could be started, and in some cases completed, from circulation.
