 It is truly wonderful to see the recognition that our University has received over the last few years, and is continuing to receive, as demonstrated not only by the doubling of student numbers over the last six years but also in the form of donated scholarships, gifts for specific purposes and Government grants. The dollar value of these grants and donations has been in excess of $32 million.

CAMERON'S MONKEY BUSINESS AT TROPFEST
 Film and Television Alumnus Cameron Edser admits being presented second prize by Toni Collette at the Movie Extra Tropfest Final is “all a bit of a blur”.
“All I know, from watching the replay, is that I had the biggest grin I’ve ever seen on my face. I guess I was pretty happy!” Edser said.
And happy he should be. Scooping second prize at the world’s largest short film festival has catapulted Edser and his Co-Director Michael Richards into the spotlight.
“Already we’re starting to see doors opening for us. Overnight we went from relative unknowns to, well, not famous, but significantly more prominent within the film industry,” he said.
