Celebrating the achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander graduates
Fourteen First Nations students will graduate from the University of Adelaide this semester, and their accomplishments were celebrated at a special event hosted by Wirltu Yarlu, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Unit at the University.
It was a proud day for Professor Steve Larkin, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Engagement). “Wirltu Yarlu is all about providing opportunities and support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to pursue higher education, helping them achieve their goals, and seizing their dreams. Today's graduation is a testament to the importance of our job.
These students overcome numerous obstacles and challenges to get here today, showing everyone that anything is possible if we set our minds to it and work hard towards a goal.”
We congratulate all the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander graduates on their incredible achievements and wish them the best in their future endeavours.
