Macquarie science reform movement
text:
Macquarie science reform movement refers to the successful
transformation of the degree system at Macquarie University in 1979
which followed an academic and political campaign initiated in 1977. Macquarie University, founded in 1964, adopted a degree structure
modeled after the Oxbridge tradition where all graduating students
were awarded a BA regardless of their field of study, with the
exception of law students. Many science students saw this as a disadvantage
and began to mobilize for reform
