of Sydney had cancelled the June talk by the
Dalai Lama.
This raises the question - is Sydney University
committed to free and open debate?
As far as I'm aware the Dalai Lama does not
bring politics into his talks - so the only
reason that I can think of why the university would
take this step - is that China forms a key
international student market for Sydney University
and funds various university activities. The
University did not want to take the risk of
the topic of China's relentless efforts to suppress
Tibetan culture being raised.
Is this a desirable stance for a university to take?
