One of the main economic drivers in the regional city of Wagga Wagga is the university.
Though it started under another name as a separate, independent institution, for the past 30 years the Estalla-based campus has been a part of the Charles Sturt University (CSU) footprint.
In 2020, the university revealed it was facing dire financial circumstances with a projected $80 million deficit brought on, they say, by the COVID-19 global pandemic.
So began my coverage of a university in trouble for The Daily Advertiser.
