Alumni Evening

Following the official opening of the new accommodation block on 5 March, an evening gathering of Sydney University Alumni was held at the School of Rural Health.

On a pleasant summer evening, our grounds were a picture and it was delightful to have this gathering out of doors in the School's courtyard.

There were about 120 attendees, representing most faculties of The University of Sydney. Our guests were the Chancellor Professor Marie Bashir; the Vice Chancellor, Dr Michael Spence and the Deans of Medicine, Dentistry and Nursing. Numerous other University of Sydney identities were also present.

The official part of the evening was brief, enabling fellow alumni and guests to mingle and enjoy the excellent catering which was provided.

It is intended that the local committee continue its activities, having an annual gathering of alumni in Dubbo. The next meeting will probably be in autumn of 2010.
