ALMOST a hundred university students and teachers have rallied in Brisbane against the federal government's proposed $2.3 billion cuts to higher education.
National Tertiary Education Union (NTEU) President Dr Andrew Bonnell says the decline in funding for each university student will have major ramifications.
"It will affect students in many ways," Mr Bonnell told AAP.
"There's a push for more casual lecturers and tutors to save money.
"This results in quality concerns.
"Also casuals are not being paid to be around all the time to assist students."
He said it was not good policy or politics to cut funding from one education sector to fund another.
The federal government wants to increase school funding by $14.5 billion over six years and says it plans to pay for the Gonski reforms by taking more than $2 billion from university funding.
The National Union of Students and the NTEU held protests and rallies in Queensland and Melbourne on Tuesday.
