Given the significant financial impact, does this $100m estimate truly reflect the full extent of reputational damage, or is it a conservative assessment masking a far more extensive crisis of trust?

Big universities, especially those with global reach, need to take responsibility for their actions. The ANU scandals under Julie Bishop cost them $100m in reputation. Its a stark reminder that maintaining integrity is crucial for their future success.
