Congratulations on Being Selected to Participate in The Congratulations on being selected to participate in the Regents Semester Program in Newcastle, Australia. You are about to embark upon what may be one of the most formative and exciting experiences of your life! This handbook contains the most up-to- date information specific to the program in Newcastle. We expect you to read all of the information carefully and to take the handbook with you to Newcastle. One of the best ways to prepare for study abroad is to learn as much as possible about the program and Australia prior to your departure. You can do this by visiting the Office for Study Abroad, reading information about the program and the country, and talking to faculty and former students. However, there may be situations you will not have anticipated, and your flexibility will determine the kind of experience you will have while abroad. The UI Study Abroad is here to help you throughout your preparation and semester abroad. Please let us know if you have any questions. We can be reached at Study Abroad, 1111 University Capitol Centre, 319-335-0353. We wish you a successful and rewarding study abroad experience!

  • Plus Fitness Takes on Mount Panorama Bathurst 1000
    Plus Fitness Takes on Mount Panorama Bathurst 1000 Three sets of brothers to create history in this October’s race NEWCASTLE-based brothers Aaren and Drew Russell will achieve a life-long dream this year of racing in the most famous race in Australia - the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 at Mount Panorama sponsored by Australian gym chain, Plus Fitness. Regulars in the V8 Supercars Dunlop Series over the past decade, the Novocastrian duo has been granted a wildcard entry by V8 Supercars to compete in the most famous race in Australia. The Russell brothers join Nissan’s Kelly brothers, Rick and Todd, and the Erebus team’s Davison brothers, Will and Alex, on the grid this October. It’s the first time in just over 30 years (1984) that three sets of brothers have competed in the Bathurst 1000. The Russells will also become second-generation Bathurst 1000 drivers given their father Wayne, who acts as their team manager, made four starts in the race between 1994 and 1997. The brothers intend to carry #62 as their racing number at Bathurst, the same number their father used in his appearances in the Mount Panorama classic. Aaren Russell, 23, has impressed in recent times in the Dunlop Series with podium finishes in the Plus Fitness Falcon last year at Queensland Raceway and Sydney Olympic Park and again this year at the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide. His talents and efforts were recently recognised by V8 Supercars Championship team Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport, which gave him his first taste of a current-generation V8 Supercar at the recent Queensland Raceway event during the additional driver practice session.
