"Brendan Nelson? To be fair, he did not begin the game of Squeeze and Hassle the
universities. John Dawkins, Minister for Ed in the Keating government,
did a fine old job of pushing universities into mergers and into
marketing. He had vice-chancellors, deans and professors writhing in
knots. Did they deserve Dawkins? Were they so stodgy and protective of
privilege that they had to be tortured and forced to mend their ways?
Probably -- a little." Harry Robinson
