I've been asked before about the 'risk' of studying at smaller or regional units. I don't think they are risky due to the quality of their teaching. The real risk is the quality of their management and the possibility that courses could be cancelled with no warning.

Breaking: Government projected to badly miss 2035 climate target, fall shy of 2030

Just to cut through the backslapping: the very small emissions reduction (2%) is nowhere near enough even for our own local targets. These are also the easiest cuts (ie from local pwr generation bc we are buying solar panels) and are only in one sector.
Exported emissions are 4x bigger and growing.
