Students currently studying the ‘War and Society’ course recently went on an excursion to Melbourne and visited some significant memorials.

“The Shrine is something of a Melbourne landmark and  the best part was the Turkish Friendship Memorial - Hugo Throssell's anti war sentiments and Gallipoli epitaphs inscribed on the same. It is a fascinating instance of dialogical memorialisation with the shrine itself and the students responded to the memorial in diverse and engaging ways” – Professor Bruce Scates

Our thanks go to our students and to Professor Bruce Scates from ANU School of History for organising such a successful study trip.
