What's wrong, per se, with laughing at the antics of disabled people? I wear hearing aids. I recall a Fawlty Towers episode with an old lady who wore a hearing aid but never had the battery on because it ran it down. Damn funny episode. Not cruel at all, but laughing at someone's disability and how they deal with it. All humour isolates out some behaviour and ridicules it.

When you read both sides of the story it becomes apparent that the university is properly enforcing it's regulations, and that there has been a case of mis-conduct. This is quite separate to the issue of the worthwhileness of the candidate's project. That's bureaucracy for you.

youtube COMPLETELY controls speech. it is the furthest thing from free speech. case in point this message will most likely be gone before anybody reeds it.

I am a PhD candidate and I understand why Vice Chancellor Coaldrake is trying to force the whistle blowers out of the university whilst protecting the researchers that breached the academic code of ethics. He has to protect the university at all costs. His own job is on the line. If he concedes that such an appalling ethical breach occurred on his watch, he would be sacked quicker that he could say "any disabled people to laugh at here?" Serious legal advice would have been sought on this one...

Western media blackout again! Do a youTube search on "Vancouver Chinese protest Tibetan riots"Tell me why Western Medias are MUTED on this? I mean Japan and Korea reported this. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese, including HongKongese and Taiwanese, protest miles after miles. There is ZERO report in EU, BBC, CNN, Australia and other Western nations. Free Tibet protests of 100 people are reported by BBC, CNN, etc. Is this how "Free Media" works? Western prejudice failed to respect FACTS!

i was once told by a disabled person that, people are devided into 2 groups. Those that are disabled and those who are not yet disabled, because at some point in every ones life they will have problems whether they have an accident or from old age

All this was new to me so I read about it from other sources as well as viewing this video.IT APPEARS that lunatic evil reigns at QUT.It is a publicly funded university run by autocratic ineptitude with a fine fascist bent.
