CHANCELLOR, I Have the Honour to Present to You for the Award of The
CHANCELLOR, I have the honour to present to you for the award of the degree of Doctor of Economics, Honoris Causa, Dr Neil Raymond Conn, Officer of the Order of Australia. Dr. Conn was born in Sydney in 1936. He attended several schools in northern and western New South Wales before studying at the University of Sydney, from which he received, firstly, a Bachelor of Economics degree, with first class Honours in Economic Statistics, and then the degree of Master of Economics. Between 1961 and 1975 he lectured in Economics at the University of Sydney. During this period his talents were recognised and sought by external organisations, and he was seconded for a total of two years’ service in the Commonwealth Treasury and the Commonwealth Department of Secondary Industry. He also spent one year as the James B. Duke Fellow at Duke University in the United States, where he won his Doctorate in Economics, and gained membership of the elite academic society Phi Beta Kappa. Dr. Conn left academia in 1975, to work for two years as Principal Administrator, Growth Studies Division, at the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris. In this role he significantly increased the profile of Australia and Australians in the context of discussions and decisions about international economic affairs. He returned to Sydney to become Deputy Secretary of the New South Wales Treasury for several years. In 1981 he came to the Northern Territory to become our Under Treasurer. He held that position until 1983, when he went back to Sydney to work for a Canadian owned merchant bank.
