Tertiary Education Union organiser Shaun Scott said today's protest action would not be the last and a larger protest march was being planned. ``There is a high level of anger and anxiety about what is being proposed.'' Staff were not only concerned about losing their jobs, but also the effect cuts would have on research and teaching.
