Queensland University of Technology

Queensland University of Technology (QUT) "is one of Australia's largest universities, enrolling 40,000 students, 12 per cent from overseas." 

In response to Peter Coaldrake's "push to scrap QUT's basic Arts and Social Science degrees", students have created a protest website called Keep Humanities.
