Abstract

160 Years:160 Stories provides an insight into the University of Melbourne community from its foundation to the present day through the lives of people associated with every aspect of the University. Scholars and athletes, doctors and priests, actors and musicians, philosophers and linguists, administrators and student activists are among those whose lives are described. The reader will find well-known names and unsung heroes and heroines. All contributed to the Melbourne Experience of their time and form part of the kaleidoscope of University life.
