George WilliamsGUEST
You've got to come to me as a student and not assume that I've got all my other needs met.
Tim PerkinsHOST
Yeah.
Tim PerkinsHOST
There's a couple of things that are coming up for me, and I'd love you in a moment to explain to our listeners the context of Western Sydney University for them to get a bit of an understanding of it.
Tim PerkinsHOST

Alan SilburnGUEST
So, yeah.
Alan SilburnGUEST
go do the exams and accept a position at Western Sydney University as undergraduate doctor of medicine, start pursuing that, working full-time, studying full-time.
Alan SilburnGUEST
And we got to a point where I sort of had to back out of the full-time work to really focus in on those last few years of university.
Alan SilburnGUEST
But that also opens up a lot of time that I'm used to filling.
Manisha GazulaGUEST
Finally, after, I remember it was around one o'clock and someone said to me, why don't you try UWS? And I thought, okay, where is it? And they said the office, the educational office is in Neppian, so near Penrith.
Richard FidlerHOST
So this is the University of Western Sydney.
Manisha GazulaGUEST

Manisha GazulaGUEST

Maddy RoweHOST
She's a Bankstown girl and in a Facebook post, Casey Donovan celebrated saying, this girl from Bankstown has been awarded an Honorary Doctorate and I'm still trying to find the words.

The spectral nature of autism makes providing uniform services difficult.
MiraHOST
And Alice Bachik and Whitehouse, two academics from Western Sydney University and the University of Western Australia, have noted that services need to intersect and bridge across numerous different spaces, including health, disability and education departments.
MiraHOST
So with the announcement of an autism minister, I find that there's been this question that's been bugging me since the beginning.
MiraHOST
And like an important bit of context that I forgot to write into the script is that none of the autism ministers that have been announced have been people with autism.
Maddy RoweHOST
Sort of.
