Abstract

In March, 1960, more than 50 years ago, I was delivered to the UNE by my nervous and overawed parents. Of course, I was wearing my best outfit: a pink linen dress, a pink straw hat and a pair of white gloves, and clutching a handbag. This was the outfit I had worn to hand out how-to-vote cards with my father for the Country Party at the last federal election. I was 16 years old, and the first member of my extended family ever to go to university.
