Emeritus Professor David Black of Energy Economics Tony Owen, is a name synonymous with from Curtin Business School, Australian history and politics – suggests it doesn’t. and he is vocal about Australia becoming a republic. summer 2008/09 cite 1 VC’S VIEW THE best measure of Curtin’s vision of being a leading university in education and research is its students. While the University continues to tailor courses and target research to improve the educational and research outcomes for students and the community, it is the students, by their commitment to scholarship, who embody the University’s vision. Curtin strives to prepare its students for a future beyond tertiary studies because it is these students who will one day shape the future in business, industry, government and the wider community. A significant portion of our student cohort lies in the 18 to 30 demographic – otherwise known as Generation Y – and I’m pleased to see that this group weaves a common thread through this vibrant issue of Cite. Learn more about the often-misunderstood Gen Y, particularly their workplace aspirations, in ‘Gen Y: it pays to understand them’. Gen Yers are highly educated and ambitious, with great expectations – characteristics they are sometimes derided for. But these are precisely the qualities Curtin encourages in its students. The spatial sciences are revolutionising the technology that maps place, space and location, with applications ranging from the everyday GPS navigation systems in our cars to geographic information systems which help us better understand global warming and climate change. Generation Y, having grown up with technology and the internet, is at the forefront of this rapidly emerging science which you can learn more about in ‘Mapping the Future’. From science to sport, Curtin’s Elite Athletes program supports the sporting and academic pursuits of athletes, in preparation for a life with and beyond sport. Curtin is proud of the more than 30 elite athletes – again, mainly Gen Yers – who study at the Bentley Campus, among them Olympians past and present, including several who attended the Beijing Games. ‘Sport and Study: a winning combination’ provides an insight into the flexible program that brings balance to the lives of these gifted students, and offers a glimpse of the commitment required by them to achieve their dual goals. Curtin’s scholarly offerings and cutting-edge research initiatives are made possible only by the dynamic academics and researchers who are at the vanguard of their discipline. Political commentator and historical consultant at the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library Emeritus Professor David Black engages in the Australian republic debate with an impassioned perspective on page 28. And I invite you to read about the important developments by health science researchers in the treatment of whooping cough and asthma. Finally, you will notice the pages in this issue of Cite have switched from gloss to satin stock. The reason is twofold: non-reflective paper aids readability because it reduces light reflecting off the page and, in turn, complies with the University’s Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP). Curtin’s DAIP outlines the strategies we will undertake to provide an accessible and inclusive environment for our students, staff and visitors with disabilities, including vision impairment, and non-reflective paper is recommended in the Disability Services Commission’s guidelines for accessible printed information. So happy reading. It’s been an exciting year at Curtin. As 2008 draws to a close, I wish you all a peaceful and prosperous holiday season, ahead of another year of opportunities and challenges in 2009.

  • GDHC Red Rag May 2016
    MAY, 2016 GLEBE DISTRICT HOCKEY CLUB THE RED RAG A Champion Club, A Club of Champions President Report I reported last year in our August Red Rag, the following: “As reported in the April Red Rag, the club has been asked to look at our current management structures/constitution. I advised then that the process was underway and I can confirm that this is still the case. We should be able to review the changes for recommendation at the final management committee meeting of the year in October, to then have as an agenda item on this year’s AGM (December). I look forward to getting this across the line.” Well, a few things got in the way of that process, but we are now working towards definitely restructuring the club’s management for consideration at this year’s AGM. There will be no real change to the operations of the club in terms of the management positions in place, rather, the primary change is the reduction in the numbers of the people that make up the management committee. At present, the club’s constitution allows for 13 people on the management committee – we will be looking to reduce that number to around 6 or 7 for better efficiencies, with those moving off the management committee, in general terms, simply reporting in to the new committee members. This is in line with other clubs and other sporting bodies and will enable our committee at its meetings to look at more significant issues rather than many of the day to day operational issues of the club which occurs now.
