ANU rally to protest School of Music cuts - photo gallery
If you didn't get to be at one of the best rallies ever, you can get a flavour of it here.
ANU School of Music rally
- The rally began with bands playing all over campus, showing the depth and breadth of skill produced by the School.
- Brass band gathers up protesters and leads them to Union Court.
- Brass band and drummers and dancing, rhythmically clapping protesters.
- Gary France drumming up the intensity.
- Are we having fun yet? Oh, yes.
- Jazz band leader adds swing to the chant of 'Save Our School'.
- Musicians of very different styles join in protest.
- The NTEU labelled the VC's planned ANU cuts 'Cold, not bold.' The meme has been taken further.
- Music School choir enchants the protestors.
- The drumming, chanting crowd fell silent to listen to the exquisite singing of a School of Music choir.
- NTEU-banner-holding protester masked in the spirit of festive protest.
- ACT NTEU Secretary Stephen Darwin inspired the crowd with a fiery rejection of cuts to the School of Music.
- Greens MLA Caroline Le Couteur addresses the rally.
- Federal police attended but stayed in the background of a peaceful rally.
- Protestors listening to speeches of support for the School of Music (Not, as this photo might suggest, worshipping a tree).
- It was a huge rally of about a thousand people.
- Jack Hobbs, ANU Students' Association's Music Rep, addressing the crowd.
- Malba Barahona carrying the NTEU banner in the march to the Chancery.
- Annie Carroll carrying the other end of the banner!
