In this podcast, we discuss the crisis in higher education. Massive staff layoffs, the closure of entire departments, mostly in the Humanities across Australian universities, puncture the news cycle. The cost of getting a degree has skyrocket while the quality and value of one may be heading in the other direction, with deep implications for our democracy and social mobility. We ask where this crisis came from and how we can fix it.
