ANU asks staff to waive 2.5% pay increase to address $250M budget shortfall due to reduced foreign student enrollment.

Australian National University (ANU) has asked staff to forgo their 2.5% pay increase to help address a $250 million budget shortfall exacerbated by reduced foreign student enrollment due to COVID-19. Vice-Chancellor Genevieve Bell will reduce her salary by 10% and recommends similar cuts for executives. The National Tertiary Education Union opposes this proposal, citing concerns over potential job losses and mismanagement of funds.
