The University of Western Sydney is relatively young as far as Universities go, but it was created to give young people in Western Sydney a chance to break the cycles of poverty that held us back and to succeed with accessible, world class education. 

We love our University, but as students of UWS we are outraged that we were not consulted about changes to the branding of the University. We should have been consulted from the beginning of the process, and we are outraged that we only found out through casual mention from a lecturer.

We call upon the University of Western Sydney to abandon its proposed rebranding, and to keep the current name - University of Western Sydney, and to scrap the hideous proposed design for the University logo.
