In doing so, we remembered founding Vice-Chancellor Dr Augustus Short whose noble vision was to create an institution accessible through scholarships to all bright students, regardless of their birth or wealth. Throughout its history the University has been shaped through the support of its generous donors. In 2014, we welcomed the support of over 1,300 donors, and through this support, the University continues to live out its founding vision of providing transformational opportunities for our students and researchers that benefit the wider community. On behalf of our students and researchers who may have been otherwise unable to pursue their passion for new knowledge, I thank you. The University is determined to remain among the very best research-intensive institutions, with a commitment to enhancing our research capacity and doubling the number of scholarships available to PhD students. In 2014, we retained our 90 year partnership with SA Health to deliver the state’s dental service and, once completed, our new Adelaide Medical and Nursing Schools building will form a critical part of the South Australian Health and Biomedical Precinct. This will make collaboration and discovery possible across health sciences to an extent unparalleled in the southern hemisphere. As financial pressures on all universities continue, we must find new ways of funding the work we do. It is vital we ensure the long-term vision and strength of the University, and continue to deliver meaningful outcomes to our local and wider communities. As a donor you are among the most valuable members of our community and the compelling stories from staff, students and donors in this report showcase how your gifts make a real difference. This is our inaugural donor report which we will send to our donors on an annual basis. Thank you for your support in 2014. I look forward to continuing our work together into the future. Professor Warren Bebbington Vice-Chancellor and President Thank you from the Chief Engagement Officer Since joining the University in 2013 as the first Chief Engagement Officer I have been inspired and motivated by the commitment and generosity of our donors. Your commitment to making a difference has a tangible impact on our students and staff and their ability to have a positive impact on the community around us. Thank you. colleagues and John Martin on page 4, I have been delighted to make my own contribution. I am sure that many of you share with me the joy and satisfaction of giving to an area that you really care about. As someone new to Australia and Adelaide in particular, I have been keen to find out what prompts people to give. Unsurprisingly, the answers are universal with three common responses: because the University has enabled them to achieve so much since studying here and they want to give back. Secondly supporters may have a particular interest or affinity with the work undertaken at the University, from supporting students from rural areas to answering fundamental questions about why so many babies are born early. The final common response was strikingly simple: because they were asked. We will always be sensitive about the manner and frequency with which we invite support, but we are encouraged that asking for support is, like the act of giving, a noble quest. I am immensely grateful that you have chosen to support the University of Adelaide this past year. Gifts of all sizes, from the youngest to the oldest of donors, from individuals and organisations, can and do have such a transformative effect and it would not be possible for us to do everything we do without that vital support from you. In 2014, the re-naming of our scholarships for disadvantaged students, now known as the Augustus Short Scholarships in honour of our founding Vice-Chancellor’s vision, is something that resonated very strongly with me. Like many of my 2 The impact of giving As a University, and a recipient of your valuable charitable support, we are committed to ensuring that your experience of giving is an enjoyable and rewarding one. Our donor charter is included at the back of this publication. Thank you again for your support. I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in the year ahead.

Considering himself fortunate to have received a world-class education that led him to enjoy a satisfying and fulfilling career, John proudly gives back to the University so he can support future generations of students. “My education helped me earn money and have a full and rewarding life and that’s why I have chosen to give back to the University.” John has given to the Barr Smith Library appeal every year since its inception in 2002, supported all the Augustus Short Scholarship appeals since 2003 and donates to a variety of other areas within the University including research within the Faculty of Health Sciences through the Florey Medical Research Foundation. After graduating in 1962, John worked at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) where he specialised in obstetrics and gynaecology. It was an exciting time for a young doctor working in a hospital that was on the cutting-edge of new and innovative areas of medicine including the first kidney transplant in South Australia. 4 The impact of giving John travelled to England in the late 1960s, working as a ship’s doctor on the way. He spent three years in Manchester and later worked as a medical consultant with NATO forces in West Germany. After 10 years away from home John returned to work at the QEH where he spent 30 years as a senior visiting medical specialist and in the 10 years before retiring he also worked at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital and in private practice. “I have been very fortunate, as are the other medical graduates of my time,” says John. When he returned to the University for his Class of 1962 Golden Jubilee reunion, John encouraged fellow classmates to join him in donating towards the class gift – an initiative established in 2011 which has supported outstanding PhD candidates to continue their research at the University. “If I’m able to help somebody get an education and to have as good a time during their studies and working life as I did, then I’m doing a good thing.” “It is a satisfying feeling to know that you have done your bit. As the saying goes ‘from little things, big things grow’.” “What we all have in common is an education provided by outstanding teachers at a beautiful campus.” Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery George Koutouzis is from a farming family in the Riverland town of Berri, South Australia. The oldest of four children, he has a keen interest in playing sports, especially soccer which he has been playing since a young age. Relocating away from home meant George was faced with financial hurdles before he even commenced studying. Receiving an Augustus Short Scholarship means he can focus on his education rather than worrying about money. “My course requires a large amount of time and intense studying and this leaves limited time for work – the scholarship will contribute to my accommodation and living expenses,” says George. 2014 The University of Adelaide continues to gain vital support from staff, alumni and the general public through its appeals. George Koutouzis For George, choosing to study medicine stemmed from a passion to make a positive difference to the health, wellbeing and care of people in the community. 844 existing donors 149 new donors $345,231 funds raised “This scholarship will assist me to further my education and give me the opportunity to fulfil my dream of becoming a doctor,” he said. The impact of giving 5 A lifelong relationship Andrew Bartlett’s relationship with the University started 36 years ago as a 16-year-old animal technician in the genetics department. Straight out of school, it was Andrew’s first job and it led him to a career that continues to inspire him. “Just because it’s my job doesn’t exclude me from lending further support through the staff giving program.” In 1996 as a mature age student Andrew completed a Bachelor of Management at the University of South Australia and was later supported by a University of Adelaide scholarship to undertake the Graduate Diploma in Science and Technology Commercialisation. Andrew’s fortnightly donation is split between the faculties of Science, Health Sciences, and Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences. His son has just finished third year in civil and structural engineering which prompted him to include that faculty in his giving. Now the Manager of Laboratory Animal Services, Andrew’s work supports the University’s biomedical community through the delivery of world-class and ethical laboratory animal products and services. “Every day I get paid to be a part of the research successes at the University, giving a small amount back through the staff workplace giving program fulfils my personal belief that we all should contribute back for the good of society,” he says. “Every day I am directly exposed to extraordinary people making an impact on the world stage - it’s inspiring and continually surprises me,” says Andrew. Having worked for over three decades at the same institution, Andrew says he is more than happy to support others through the staff workplace giving program. “It has always been a struggle for me to identify charities to support each year but this year the penny dropped when I realised the work being done here is as worthy of financial support as any other organisation,” he says. 6 The impact of giving “I expect to continue my relationship with the University well past my current role, career moves and ultimately retirement – this is a lifelong relationship.” Staff workplace giving program Commenced June 2013 $41,149 Funds raised since inception For many staff in the Faculty of Sciences their work here is more than just a job; it is a deep commitment to training a new generation of young scientists and encouraging the best possible research in their fields of expertise. Much of this work is notoriously difficult to fund, and when staff commit to help, it is of enormous benefit to the Faculty overall. Professor Robert Hill Executive Dean, Faculty of Sciences The impact of giving 7 The study of life sciences at the University receives invaluable assistance through the generosity of the Carthew family charity fund which is now in its third year of providing significant support. Because of the Carthew family’s generosity, talented early-career researchers in the School of Molecular and Biomedical Science have been able to continue their life-changing research while waiting for major National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) grants. The support has been significant in the career progression of Dr Steven Polyak, the second recipient of the Carthew funding. With over 33 per cent of the world’s population infected with an antibiotic resistant strain of tuberculosis, Steven’s work to develop new antibiotics is vital. The funding allowed Steven to continue this important research and a novel class of antibiotics has been patented as a result. Carthew family adds strength to life sciences research 8 The impact of giving “The promise of new discoveries that make a real difference in the world is exciting and fuels most scientists. To discover a new antibiotic that can alleviate mortality and morbidity associated with bacterial infections would be immensely rewarding,” says Steven. Lindsay Carthew says he is excited by the advances being made in molecular sciences and gets great satisfaction from supporting this work. “I like to think that my support will make a difference,” says Lindsay. “There is a global collective effort through universities and research institutions to improve health and lifestyle – I believe all contributions add up to major advancements.” Graduating from the University with a Bachelor of Economics in 1978 and returning in 1989 to complete a Master of Business Administration, Lindsay comes from a long line of family members who have attended the University, the most recent being his daughters Hannah who graduated with an honours degree in biomedical science in 2010 and Nicole who graduated in 2006 with a Bachelor of Finance. Lindsay began his career as a sharebroker in investment banking and then as a senior executive at the Co-operative Building Society of South Australia. He went on to co-found container equipment leasing company, SCF Containers and built the company into what is now the largest supplier of rail freight containers in Australia. Selling SCF in 2012, Lindsay has recently reconnected with the University to make a difference in supporting vital research areas. The promise of new discoveries that make a real difference in the world is exciting.

The Gagliano violin, made in Naples circa 1792, had belonged to Christopher’s mother Kathleen Meegan. Kathleen was a graduate of the Elder Conservatorium and came from a very musical family: four of her six siblings pursued musical careers. Music was Kathleen’s passion from a young age and she gave her first solo concert performance in the Semaphore Town Hall at the age of nine. Throughout her career she played with the Elder Conservatorium’s String Quartet, the 5CL Studio Orchestra and the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra among others. Neither Christopher nor his siblings inherited the musical genes that had been so strong in his mother’s generation. When the violin was bequeathed to Christopher in 1983 after his mother died, he hoped his children or grandchildren may one day breathe new life into the beloved instrument but sadly it was not meant to be. In 2013, marking the 100th anniversary of his mother entering the Conservatorium, Christopher felt it was the right time to give others the opportunity to use the violin. Giving it to the Conservatorium felt right, as it was there where Kathleen’s love of music flourished all those years ago. she was both a member and a teacher,” Christopher said. The 200-year-old violin has now been restored by the University and is currently played by honours students at the Elder Conservatorium. Christopher and his wife were invited last year to attend a performance by the then recipient student, Laura Evans, and enjoyed hearing the restored violin make music once again. “Hearing my mother’s violin played again after nearly 40 years was very moving,” said Christopher. “It reminded me of my youth, when music was the lifeblood of our family.” Christopher’s strong connections to the University also go back to his own days as a student. He recalls a simpler time when he graduated from the University of Adelaide with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery in 1964. After graduating, Christopher began his career at the Royal Adelaide Hospital before moving into general practice which became his career for 32 years. He also worked for the Rural Doctors Workforce as a bush locum for over 17 years. After a career spanning 50 years and across many locations in South Australia, Christopher retired last year. “My mother used to talk fondly about her time at the Elder Conservatorium where 10 The impact of giving The impact of giving 11 Thank you to: The Hughes Bequest Society is named in honour of the first donor Sir Walter Watson Hughes whose generous donation of £20,000 helped establish the institution in 1874.The Society acknowledges our generous benefactors who continue this tradition through their estates.

And in fellow student Tony Barker, she found her future husband – “an absolute gentleman with a twinkling sense of humour”. Besides conducting research in plasma physics, Tony also represented the University in rugby, squash and golf. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in 1963, Master of Science in 1965 and a PhD in 1969. On completion of his PhD, Tony received a post-doctoral research fellowship at the University of Florida in Gainesville and after receiving her Master of Science in 1969 Peggy joined him and continued her own research in mathematical physics there. When they returned to Australia in 1971, Tony worked at the Commonwealth Meteorological Research Centre (CMRCCSIRO) in Melbourne where, among other 14 The impact of giving things, he conducted numerical modelling and sea surface temperature analysis for the Southern-Oscillation-El Nino phenomenon. In the early 1970s, the theoretical physicists turned to sheep-ranching on a large, inherited station near Burra in South Australia, where they raised their children and managed the family wool growing enterprise. Tony became involved in community and rural affairs, chairing the Burra District Council Finance Committee, and also representing the Mid-North in the SA Farmers Federation. Combined with Peggy’s experience in investment analysis on the sheep station, they were offered the opportunity to establish the South Australian Branch of an investment advisory business in Adelaide in 1987. After Tony’s untimely death in 2006, Peggy decided to establish the Barker Tong Scholarship in Physics. The scholarship supports postgraduate students studying a PhD in physics with a preference for theoretical physics. Above: Tony and Peggy Barker “Both Tony and I won scholarships which helped us with our studies. I wanted to give back to the University and provide financial assistance to make it easier for a postgraduate student to focus on their research in physics,” says Peggy. As a member of the Hughes Bequest Society which acknowledges the generosity of friends and alumni who remember the University in their Will, Peggy says that she has been made to feel very involved in her philanthropic cause. She urges others to see the value in supporting an institution that has played a significant part in shaping their careers and lives. “The thought that my small act of philanthropy could one day contribute to another Nobel Laureate from the University is rather exciting.” Scholarship opens doors for Dylan Harries “Receiving the Barker Tong Scholarship has allowed me to be involved in research activities that would otherwise be much more difficult to take part in. In the first year of my PhD candidature this has already proven invaluable. The additional funding provided by the scholarship gave me the chance to present the results of our research internationally. To be able to meet some of the leaders in theoretical particle physics at the start of my postgraduate studies was immensely beneficial and has opened doors for collaboration on other projects. I am so grateful for this fantastic opportunity that will continue to benefit me in the years ahead.” The impact of giving 15 Donor charter We are grateful for the support of all our donors and are committed to building a relationship of mutual trust and respect.

Our undergraduate and postgraduate studies extended over two decades across arts and education. In our retirement we continue to be enthusiastic volunteers in various capacities including leading Heritage Tours, working with University Collections, and in the Hughes Bequest Society. Through the latter we have made provision in our Will to support medical research and a postgraduate scholarship. We are proud of our alma mater and glad to contribute to its future.
