Today we mourn the loss of Hon. Dr Bob Hawke, LLB, BA, DLitt.
Hawke was the Guild President in 1952 and the state’s Rhodes Scholar in 1953. UWA awarded him a LLB in 1951 and a BA in 1955. Upon his election as PM, UWA also honoured him with an Honorary Doctorate.
Vale Bob Hawke.

Research has shown that dog walkers are not only more likely to be physically active but that walking the dog can help people in their neighbourhood feel safer! ❤ Just another reason to love pets!

Manners matter. Always be polite to the peafowl 🦚🤷😂
You know you are at University of Western Australia when you find yourself saying "excuse me" to the peacock(s) blocking the doorway. It's delightfully absurd.

In sad news, a major section of our beloved 86-year-old Moreton Bay fig tree collapsed on Monday afternoon. 😢💔🌳
Fortunately, no one was injured and our team was quick to respond to cordon off the area.
Arborists are inspecting the tree and we will let you know the outcome.
