Page 1 Letter of compliance 28th of February 2018 The Honourable Grace Grace MP Minister for Education and Minister for Industrial Relations PO Box 15033 CITY EAST QLD 4002 Dear Minister, I am pleased to submit for presentation to the Parliament the Annual Report 2017 and financial statements for James Cook University. I certify that this Annual Report complies with: the prescribed requirements of the Financial Accountability Act 2009 and the Financial and Performance Management Standard 2009, and the detailed requirements set out in the Annual report requirements for Queensland Government agencies. A checklist outlining the annual reporting requirements can be found accompanying this annual report accessible at https://www.jcu.edu.au/about-jcu/annual-report. Yours sincerely Mr Bill Tweddell Chancellor James Cook University Page 2 Year in review This year has been a significant one for JCU from a governance perspective. A revised James Cook University Council (University Council) committee structure was implemented in 2017, and appears to be working well. The revised structure emerged from a University Council workshop in October 2016, which focused on improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the University Council. The outcomes of the workshop included a reduction in the number of committees, revised membership, and a revised structure of the University Council agendas to allow a greater focus on strategic / longer-term issues. The University Legislation Amendment Act 2017 (ULAA) was passed by the Queensland Government, and was granted royal assent on 13 October 2017, resulting in changes to the James Cook University Act 1997. This is a significant step forward for the University. Among other things, new provisions in the JCU Act provide the legislative basis upon which the University Council may amend the size and the composition of University Council. The University Council now has greater decision-making powers to ensure a better skills, geographic, ethnic and gender mix across its membership. The changes will also help the University meet the Queensland Government’s gender equity target of parity by 2020. As the Chair of a 22-member (current) University Council, where only five of whom are women, I have a particularly strong commitment in this area. In response to the new flexibility provided for in our JCU Act, the University Council decided upon a medium-sized University Council of 15 members. This historic legislative reform, coupled with the University Council’s decision in response, could not have been timed better for JCU, leading into the reconstitution of the new University Council on 20 April 2018. This change, together with other changes to our JCU Act, augurs well for the effective governance of Australia’s University for the Tropics. In October, the University Council approved the JCU Academic Plan and endorsed the JCU University Plan 2018-2022. Both the Academic Plan and University Plan had been discussed broadly, with focused engagement on the Academic Plan (by the Academic Board in particular). The plans identify critical opportunities and respond to the challenges facing the University. Key elements include widening participation by expanding the range of programs JCU offers, including pathway

  • The Death of Captain Cook in Theatre 224
    The Many Deaths of Captain Cook A Study in Metropolitan Mass Culture, 1780-1810 Ruth Scobie PhD University of York Department of English April 2013 i Ruth Scobie The Many Deaths of Captain Cook Abstract This thesis traces metropolitan representations, between 1780 and 1810, of the violent death of Captain James Cook at Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to these representations, in order to show how the interlinked texts of a nascent commercial culture initiated the creation of a colonial character, identified by Epeli Hau’ofa as the looming “ghost of Captain Cook.” The introduction sets out the circumstances of Cook’s death and existing metropolitan reputation in 1779. It situates the figure of Cook within contemporary mechanisms of ‘celebrity,’ related to notions of mass metropolitan culture. It argues that previous accounts of Cook’s fame have tended to overemphasise the immediacy and unanimity with which the dead Cook was adopted as an imperialist hero; with the result that the role of the scene within colonialist histories can appear inevitable, even natural. In response, I show that a contested mythology around Cook’s death was gradually constructed over the three decades after the incident took place, and was the contingent product of a range of texts, places, events, and individuals. The first section examines responses to the news of Cook’s death in January 1780, focusing on the way that the story was mediated by, first, its status as ‘news,’ created by newspapers; and second, the effects on Londoners of the Gordon riots in June of the same year.
