Media

An article suggested some schools were 'selling' places to international students and Wellington was one of the accused. The other being Glen Waverley Secondary College. Assistant principal Geoff Ellis said the school had room to grow and had no need to turn back domestic students. He reassured the school community that 'no local student is denied a place in favour of an international student' in the weekly Wellington Diary that was given out on the 7th of December 2007.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.
    John Berger (b. 1926)

    The media network has its idols, but its principal idol is its own style which generates an aura of winning and leaves the rest in darkness. It recognises neither pity nor pitilessness.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
