Flinders University Hall - History

History

University Hall was established in 1971.

In 1985, a number of townhouses were built to facilitate the growing demand for on-campus student accommodation. Additional townhouses have been built in subsequent years.

In 2003, an additional 200-bed, self-catering complex was built. The complex also has a community centre, a music room, a quiet room and a small café. Combined with the established townhouses, the new complex created Deirdre Jordan Village, which was officially opened in 2004.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The history of the genesis or the old mythology repeats itself in the experience of every child. He too is a demon or god thrown into a particular chaos, where he strives ever to lead things from disorder into order.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)
