25.01.2022 Murdoch University campus security is of the utmost importance to the Murdoch Womens Collective and the Murdoch Guild. This year, we have been campaigning for increased lighting and CCTV. This has been spearheaded by the Guild Council, I, Yakira Venagiam as the Womens Representative, Equity Committee and the Murdoch Village Residential Advisors. We have done a full survey of the lighting in the carparks and around campus and have come up with a proposal for changes. We now... seek the support, opinions and feedback from students to help further this initiative and push it into action.

14.01.2022 Check out the theatrical production, UNRULE "Horror, werewolves, womens health There will be blood. Menstrual blood.... Inspired by true tales of body horror and the prom scene from Carrie, Unrule is a spooky-scary and comedic premiere that teases apart our complicated relationships with female bodies. Award-winning maker Michelle Aitken (Futures Eve) and an ace ensemble of collaborators grapple deep seated anxieties around sexual, mental, and reproductive health with humour, rage and raw vulnerability. From light bladder leakage to serious accounts of medical mistreatment, they attempt to live with the monsters within by bringing them to life in grotesque, glorious, and moist forms. Be the first to strap into this cabaret meets surreal spectacle that can turn from hilarious to horrifying on a dime."
