About

Glyn Davis is the interim vice-chancellor of the University of Melbourne. He recently testified before the royal commission into antisemitism. During his testimony, Davis stated that the university had significantly altered its protest policies in response to pro-Palestine sit-ins that occurred on campus. This policy change reflects a heightened sensitivity and a revised approach to managing demonstrations within the university environment. While not directly involved in the QS World University Rankings mentioned in other news, Davis's role as interim vice-chancellor places him at the helm of a major Australian university during a period of significant public and institutional scrutiny regarding campus conduct and policy.
