Here’s what the major parties need to do about higher education this election

<https://theconversation.com/heres-what-the-major-parties-need-to-do-about-higher-education-this-election-180855>

"In the lead-up to the federal election, neither of the major parties has given
higher education much thought or attention.

While the Coalition focuses on the military and Labor on aged care,
universities continue to sweat it out after a decade of at best being ignored,
and at worst being wilfully undermined by the current government.

Higher education might not be on many voters’ radars now, but as the number of
18-year-olds is projected to increase, if university funding and places do not
increase, this could quickly become an issue if parents find their children
can’t fulfil their dream of going to university."
