This lecture engages with how a politics of size can reveal the ways in which distance, volume, capacity, agency and relationality are mobilised to reconstitute higher education as a global enterprise and universities as global actors. In this paper I explore the ways in which the spatial politics of size are at play in charging up, and powering forward, the governing of the world class university. This spatial vocabulary of sight includes vision, visibility, verticality, volume, and vertigo. Taken together, these modalities of space ‘V-Charge’ the reimagining, recalibrating and remaking of higher education as a global enterprise.
