Hundreds of students and staff from UWA, Curtin and Murdoch universities are preparing to rally at Parliament House to oppose the state government’s proposed three-way merger.

Press PLAY to hear Dylan Storer discuss the proposed university merger

Curtin Student Guild president Dylan Storer told 6PR Drive host Jamie Burnett that the government is focusing its resources in the wrong areas to improve higher education access.

“No student in my time with the guild has come up to me and said I really wish that Curtin was merged with UWA and Murdoch … they come up to me to say they can’t put a roof over their head, they can’t afford to stay in university, they can’t afford to put food on the table”, Storer said.
