It is a privilege and honor to be commencing my second year as Vice Chancellor and President here at Griffith University. I have greatly valued the wonderful opportunities over the past 12 months to get to know talented students, staff and alumni. In this newsletter, I report on last month’s Griffith Senior Leadership Conference Creating a Future for All and provide a snapshot of the great work undertaken by our Griffith community – this month’s highlight is the Kungullanji Indigenous Research Conference.
