Great #proudson moment today. My Dad is appearing in the @HighCourtofAus in the important native title case NLC v Quall - concerning native title, improper delegation and representative governance. Image
This cases has been a long fight for important principles of properly engaging traditional owners in decisions directly affecting their right.

See FCFCA decision here:

Northern Land Council v Quall [2019] FCAFC 77

And the first instance decision here:

Quall v Northern Land Council [2018] FCA 989

austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdo…

(for the true #auslaw nerds, the case materials are here: hcourt.gov.au/cases/case_d21…)
That it really. Dad has been fighting this sort of case for years, standing up for the underdog. Just excited and proud to see him appearing in the highest court in the land with a case like this

A 🧵 on managing expectations in #academia #highereducation (from my own painfully learnt experiences)

#AcademicTwitter, I accidently deleted my earlier popular pinned thread. I thought it was a good excuse to repost, but with some further reflections (older/wiser?)
So here is the original thread:
threadreaderapp.com/thread/1309366…
These are tips that I wish I had learnt earlier - I hope they help a few of you struggling with the many demands of academic life in long, dragging #pandemic where academic life is increasingly under acute pressure and everything feels extra hard

Pretty excited to see our piece on Courts and COVID - written with the awesome Anna Olijnyk and @KieranPender - out in the @AltLJ today.

Check out: "Civil courts and COVID-19: Challenges and opportunities in Australia"
journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10…
In the article we examine the pivots to remote hearings our courts have undertaken, and probe the issues of public law and good judicial administration that arise with this shift. We also flag the opportunities for future reform presented by this profound cultural shift Image
The changes in judicial practices in the last 6 months have been profound - and there are as many challenges ahead as there are opportunities that have been created. This is a needed conversation for all those with an interest in judicial studies, practice and administration. Image

THREAD ON HIGHER ED: This wonderful article by Lynda Ng is a must read for anyone working in (or interested in) higher education in Australia. It exposes the fundamental misconceptions that have plauged the corporatisation of our Universites.

overland.org.au/2020/09/where-…
The basic problem is that the corporate drive to increase profitability fundamentally does not work given the not-for-profit nature of the sector.

More money flowed in, but that money cannot really go anywhere - except new buildings and increased executive pay 2/-
Under the corporate accounting model, building are assets. This is despite their limited capacity to generate income Image

I look forward to hearing @AmeliaLoughland response to this - what a great thing for the work of young graduate to invite such a detailed response from leaders in empirical judicial studies t
This type of scholarship is still new in Australia, and we are still probing out the uses and limits of it. However, like all legal scholarship it should be discursive. The debate is enriched by disagreement and counter analysis
There appear to be methodological differences between the two studies- though this needs to be unpacked. It seems that most of the concern with loughland piece is that the sample was unrepresentative and that propositions went beyond the data.

Absolute cracker of a post by @jessiedotkerr on judicial appointment and training - bringing a great comparative and conceptual perspective auspublaw.org/2020/08/turnin…
Important to reflect on just how dated this concept that advocacy provides all you need to be a judge now looks Image
As Kerr notes, "Competence in appearing before judges has, in other words, been taken as a substitute for competence to judge."

Great question from @PabloVidalRibas on @AcademicChatter

As a legal theorist (I often have to write things out to think them through) with lots of experience in this, I thought I might share a few thoughts

[A Thread on Academic Writing]
PART II: The BIG Principles:

1) This genuine 'editing' transforms good work into excellent work. Too often we academics write with focus only on the content. Proper editing challenges us to focus on conveying the essential message
(note, this is one of the many benefits of #academictwitter - we have to write concisely ... the pain ... the horror)
