## Resource

The Independent Commission Against Corruption is launching a major public inquiry into the University of Wollongong, probing serious allegations of conflict of interest, favoritism, and improper hiring practices involving top execs like Chancellor Michael Still and Chief Governance Officer Alyssa White. The probe will examine whether recruitment rules were bent, whether work was improperly awarded to consultancy Aspirall Consulting International, and whether key hires—including interim VC John Dewar and firm KordaMentha—were handled ethically. Staff unions demand transparency and accountability to restore trust, while KordaMentha pledges full cooperation. Hearings begin June 22—watch this space.
