چکیده
Statement concerning this submission This submission is particularly concerned with the fundamental disciplines, especially mathematics and statistics, and their place within the Australian university system. Consideration of the situation of these disciplines with the university system leads to more general issues, including attitudes to research, cross-subsidisation, the objectives of teaching and learning and their realisation, the concept of quality, the recognition of quality, staffing matters and the general role of universities in society. So, its comments may also be of more general relevance. In this submission, "the paper" refers to the overview paper "Higher Education at the Crossroads", and the word "section" refers to the numbered sections within that paper.
