Earlier this week I addressed the 2026 Comcare National Conference on WHS impacts of organisational change done badly. Case study: Renew ANU. I am still filled with admiration for @nteunion.bsky.social members who stood up for one another at #ANU. It should never have been necessary. ✊

Millan and Katelyn from the @nteunion.bsky.social Bargaining Team with an update from the bargaining table at #ANU.

Bargaining at #ANU is finally underway this morning. A better ANU means fair pay, safe workloads and job security. Join @nteunion.bsky.social and help us fix a broken system. nteu.au/join

Great to have @nteunion.bsky.social representation at the 2026 Comcare Conference. Union HSRs are the best HSRs. 💜

It's been a big year at #ANU! 159 forced job losses stopped. Resignations of Vice-Chancellor, Chancellor, 6 ANU Council members. Governance reform and opening up the ANU Act. Now we're bargaining to win a better ANU. Join @nteunion.bsky.social today: www.nteu.au/join! ✊💜

"ANU now has the dubious distinction of being the only public university in Australia with conditions on its registration... This is due in large part to the management, leadership and governance failures of the Bishop-Bell regime." - @nteunion.bsky.social's @lachlan.clohesy.bsky.social on #ANU.

ANU slapped with conditions on registration following governance failures

TEQSA imposes four conditions on ANU after governance review

Great to catch up with Thomas Emerson MLA to discuss university governance at #UniCanberra, as well as the @nteunion.bsky.social's views on the state of the sector. It's great to see Independents backing the community on university governance. ✊

"Gone are the days when you could run this institution with little to no oversight... All staff are watching and we are prepared to call out the rubbish should similar failures occur again." - @nteunion.bsky.social ANU Branch President Millan Pintos-Lopez on #ANU.

Regulator imposes registration conditions on Australian National University

The Australian National University has fallen short of national tertiary education standards and must now satisfy governance conditions to maintain its registration.

About a year ago, Dr Liz Allen spoke up in Parliament. Not because it was easy. Not because it was without risk. But because it was right. This won't fix everything, but it is welcome news. @nteunion.bsky.social @drdemography.com ✊💜 www.smh.com.au/national/anu...

ANU apologises to whistleblower after ‘indefensible treatment’

Academic Liz Allen named then-chancellor Julie Bishop and two other senior leaders as having threatened, bullied and intimidated her.

In this week's wrap, Future Campus discusses @nteunion.bsky.social proposals for governance reform at #UniCanberra: "The National Tertiary Education Union has long campaigned for fewer outsiders and more staff on university councils. It is winning." More at: futurecampus.com.au/2026/08/06/t...

Great to meet with @lauranutallgreens.bsky.social today to discuss university governance at #UniCanberra. UC is the only university the ACT Government is responsible for. That's why @nteunion.bsky.social says we don't need another review. In the ACT, we can just get on with changing the UC Act. ✊

It's time to win a better ANU. Better wages, better conditions, better governance. After coming together for training & strategising yesterday, our @nteunion.bsky.social bargaining team at #ANU is ready to go! To win a better ANU, join NTEU at www.nteu.au/join. ✊️💜

What does the best version of #UniCanberra look like? We're asking UC staff your view on whether @nteunion.bsky.social should have a position on this, and if so, what that position should be. Take the survey at nteu.info/ucfaculty2026. ✊
