The 'Wokest' University of Australia will delete its division and compulsory 'Manawari' course that describes non-native students 'visitors' and 'settlers'.
The controversial module at Sydney Macquarie University made the headlines last week when a student revealed that she had to follow the class who called her a guest in Australia – even though she was born and raised here.
“The tutor let us all cancel our hands and she asked overseas students to put down their hands, then students who identify as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders to put down their hands,” Student Ava told Ben Fordham of 2GB.
'The rest of us with our hands that are left, she actually called us all the guests and that we do not belong here in Australia.
“Given that I was born here 20 years ago and grew up my whole life here, I was just taken back a bit and it's not so good with me.”
But after he was reported on Radio and by Daily Mail Australia, and questions asked by liberal MPs in the parliament of the State, the university taught the module.
Macquarie Vice Chancellor Bruce Dowton was called to the NSW parliament, where he admitted that mistakes had been made.
Liberal first house member Susan Carter asked the Vice-Kanselier or the Manawari module material contained “that non-native students are taught that they are visitors and settlers in their own country?”

Mrs Carter suggested that the controversial module 'does not really build up a culture of inclusion, one of Macquarie's core values'.
“Those words were in the introduction to this module when that was raised for me as we regularly do for each course,” Downon replied.
“I ask that it is being assessed. Those words have now been removed. '
Fordham said that students had complained to have the module deleted.
“They were tired of being ashamed over their skin color, and it is hard to believe that this could be true in 2025, but it is, white students are told, both in the classroom and in writing that Australia is not their country,” he said Tuesday.
“They were considered settlers or guests.”
Fordham added that “thanks to these uni -clockers, the awake testing that students are forced to complete are also assessed.”
The radio presenter said that the modules usually have nothing to do with what the student actually learns, but the students are still forced to do them. ”

Rachel Merton, another liberal member of the NSW -Hogerhuis, asked Mr Downon if “Aboriginal cultural consciousness was” a “mandatory mandatory study module”.
He said it was, but “those programs and that the nature is assessed.”
Fordham said: “If the Vice Chancellor believes in respecting the wishes of his students, and if he wants to treat them as adults and not children, he will place the shame sessions that we have seen at Macquarie University good and real and firm on the chopping block.”
He said that students should not be 'hammered with awake virtue signaling c *** at Uni'.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Macquarie University and her Vice Chancellor Bruce Dowton for further comments.
