from the<br />

in 1910, the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Queensland</strong><br />
began as a university for ‘the people’,<br />
and this still rings true 100 years on.<br />
in our Centenary year, we recognise<br />
‘the people’ – those staff, students<br />
and alumni – who have contributed<br />
to UQ’s transformation into a leading<br />
higher education and researchintensive<br />
institution with global reach<br />
and impact.<br />
We are especially proud <strong>of</strong> our<br />
alumni and the valuable contributions<br />
you are making in local, national and<br />
international communities. the <strong>University</strong><br />
is also grateful for your support – both<br />
philanthropic and reputational – which<br />
has allowed us to flourish in our first 100<br />
years, and which will see us continue on<br />
this path in our second century.<br />
the changes UQ has experienced<br />
have been dynamic and diverse. i invite<br />
you to celebrate a century <strong>of</strong> learning,<br />
research and achievement during the<br />
alumni reunion Weekend. a diverse<br />
program <strong>of</strong> activities, events and reunions<br />
is on <strong>of</strong>fer. i look forward to seeing you<br />
back on campus.<br />

Public Lecture:<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Ove<br />
Hoegh-Guldberg,<br />
<strong>Queensland</strong><br />
Smart State<br />
Premier’s Fellow<br />
and Director<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Global<br />
Change Institute, The <strong>University</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Queensland</strong>.<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the key characteristics <strong>of</strong> the<br />
world today is the fact that it is<br />
changing more rapidly than ever<br />
before. Be that the number <strong>of</strong> people<br />
this tour will provide you with an<br />
informative commentary <strong>of</strong> the historic<br />
subjects on the forgan Smith tower<br />
friezes which depict scenes from<br />
the foundation <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Queensland</strong>. take a closer look at the<br />
heraldry <strong>of</strong> British, australian and other<br />
universities, and discover fascinating<br />
insights on the grotesques, flora and<br />
fauna subjects on the arches, and the<br />
on the planet, the electronic gadgets<br />
we have in our pockets or the food we<br />
eat, the challenges and opportunities<br />
are influencing every sector <strong>of</strong> our lives.<br />
While there are certainly perils among<br />
the changes, the ability to conquer the<br />
problems and capitalise on the<br />
opportunities will come down to<br />
whether or not we are able to face the<br />
future honestly and openly.<br />
this lecture will explore the next<br />
twenty years <strong>of</strong> australian history,<br />
and will pr<strong>of</strong>ile some <strong>of</strong> the exciting<br />
research that could revolutionise what<br />
happens next. part <strong>of</strong> the discussion<br />
will centre on evidence that australia<br />
is not facing up to these challenges<br />
and is at risk <strong>of</strong> squandering significant<br />
opportunities as a result. Be that said,<br />
there is no doubt that the next twenty<br />
years will be some <strong>of</strong> the most exciting<br />
decades in australian and world history.<br />
the lecture will run from 12:00-<br />
12:45, followed by 10 minutes Q&a.<br />
