The murder of George Floyd (and so many others) has affected all of us. We understand that some of you in our community have been particularly hurt by this. Racism is a systemic feature of our society, and this is not limited to what has been happening in the United States in the past few weeks and over the years.

Here in the School for Cross-faculty Studies, we are strongly against any type of racist activity and we commit to an anti-racist culture and education.

Applications for the International Conference of Undergraduate Research (ICUR) 2020 are now open!

ICUR is a great opportunity for you to present your research to a global audience. Sponsored by the Monash-Warwick Alliance, the video-linked conference will take place from 29-30 September 2020, connecting students at the University of Warwick, Monash University, as well as other institutions around the world.

The deadline for abstract submissions is Sunday 31 May 2020. You can submit your abstract here.

Congratulations to our final year Liberal Arts student, Eva Kastelic, who's been accepted onto Masterchef Slovenia! This is a fantastic opportunity and we wish Eva the very best of luck in the competition.

The NSS is a really important way for you to reflect on your experience at Liberal Arts. It’s a great opportunity to think about what you found productive or enjoyable, and it gives you a way to make suggestions for our continuous improvement. We take your responses seriously: from last year’s NSS we set up more of a focus on equality (including putting more work into our ongoing efforts to diversify, liberate, and decolonize the curriculum); we worked to provide more library resources, and we worked closely with the Liberal Arts Society to improve the buddy system for incoming first years.
