Incorrect admissions section

"For international applicants, however, the entry standards are lower, with many enrolled students having very poor English,[70][71][72] and international students compose 39% of the university's student body."

Citations 70 and 71 refer to Australian universities in general and do not specifically mention Monash university. Citation 72 also does not state or infer specifically to Monash university's supposed low standards, rather it has a quotation from a Monash professor talking about international students in general.

This part should be removed as it is not specific to Monash university. It should be moved to the "Tertiary education in Australia" page (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tertiary_education_in_Australia) Aqaz110 (talk) 01:10, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Update to Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor

I am a representative of Monash University and I would like to request two factual updates to the summary block at the top right of the Monash University entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monash_University

1. Next to 'Chancellor', please replace Simon McKeon with Megan Clark

Rationale: Dr Megan Clark started as Chancellor on 2 July 2024. https://www.monash.edu/news/articles/monash-university-appoints-former-head-of-csiro-and-australian-space-agency-as-chancellor

2. Next to Vice-Chancellor, please replace Susan Elliott with Sharon Pickering

Rationale: Professor Sharon Pickering was appointed as Vice-Chancellor and President of Monash University on 29 January 2024. https://www.monash.edu/about/structure/senior-monash-staff/office-of-the-vice-chancellor-and-president/professor-sharon-pickering
