THE OURIMBAH CAMPUS EDUCATION PATHWAYS
The Ourimbah campus is a partnership of the University of Newcastle, TAFE NSW – Hunter Institute, in affiliation with the Central Coast Community College. From establishment in 1989, the Ourimbah campus has expanded to cater for the needs of its students, staff and community. Modern buildings and specialist facilities, set in a natural rainforest environment provide a relaxed and stimulating campus experience. The campus is proud to be located on the traditional lands of the Darkinjung people and carry on the role of being a place of learning. We also acknowledge all first Australians and celebrate with them the oldest continuing cultures in human history. The cross-sectoral partnership provides access to a wide range of educational opportunities including postgraduate, undergraduate, vocational and adult education short courses, enabling programs and TVET (TAFE courses run on campus for senior high school students). Students can enter and exit at different levels and take advantage of an academic credit transfer system that allows many previous studies to be recognised and carried forward to the next level, thus creating continuity, flexibility and the option for students to complete their qualifications faster than if done separately. The vitality of the campus is reflected in the achievements of its staff, students and graduates, and the respect it holds with the Central Coast community and the nation having led the way for this model of working together to enhance educational access, training and social justice.

the grAdUAtion Ceremony
the mACe the mace is the symbol of formal authority. the mace used today belongs to the University of newcastle and was designed by gold and silversmith, gerald Benney. it is made of Australian walnut and silver and its head represents an open book – the traditional symbol of learning. the mace was a gift from the University of new south wales to commemorate the establishment of the University of newcastle as an autonomous institution on 1 January, 1965. it is always borne ahead of the Chancellor in the academic procession during formal ceremonies such as today’s presentation of academic awards. the UniVersity of newCAstLe fAnfAres in mid-1994, staff and students of the University’s faculty of music were invited to submit entries for a competition to compose the University fanfares. the composition had to be capable of being performed either on organ or on brass. the winning entry by Professor robert Constable, was first played publicly at the University’s overseas graduation ceremony held in singapore in August 1994. the fanfares are performed at all ceremonial functions to herald the entry and departure of the Chancellor and other members of the Council. the UniVersity medAL the award of a University medal is an honour made only when there is a candidate of sufficient merit. to be considered for this award, a graduate must have a consistent record of exceptional academic achievement at all levels of a bachelor’s degree program, and qualify for a bachelor’s degree with first class honours.

A Brief history of grAdUAtion
the graduation ceremony is one of great antiquity. its essential features have been the same since the 12th century when the first universities came into existence. its necessary constituents are the Chancellor or his or her deputy, the academic staff, the graduates and the public. the church had a monopoly on education, partly because it was the guardian of true doctrine, and partly because clerics were almost the only people who could read and write. As a result, the only person who could license a teacher was the bishop of a diocese until, under pressure of other business; he deputed the task to his chief secretary or chancellor. As learning spread, teachers wanted a licence to teach not just in one diocese, but everywhere, and the only person who could give them that was the Pope. the Chancellor’s authority, then, came from the Pope. But at the reformation, henry Viii assumed for the Crown all the rights which had previously been the Pope’s in england. that is why all subsequent universities in england have been created by royal Charter. it is for this reason also that the Chancellor does not wear ecclesiastical robes, as would have been worn in the middle Ages, but robes similar to those of the Lord Chancellor of england. the second group participating in the ceremony is the academic staff. in the 12th century they would all have been called “masters” or mAs. At that date they were paid no salaries, but hired their own lecture rooms and charged their own fees. But they also formed themselves into a guild or union, which is what universitas originally meant. As in all guilds they were insistent that they, and only they, should determine who should be of their number, and since this involved saying who should be teachers, they soon found themselves in conflict with the Chancellor. in the 13th century they won a great victory when they persuaded the Pope to decree that Chancellors were obliged to confer degrees on all those nominated by the masters. that is why the masters examine the candidates, why the dean, acting as their spokesperson, reads out the names of those who are to receive degrees, and why the masters at this ceremony watch to see that the Chancellor or his deputy does what is required of him. thirdly the graduates. the word “degree” comes from the Latin gradus, which means “a step”. when students are admitted to a Bachelor degree they move one step up towards the mastership. when they are admitted to a master’s degree they climb another step and come up on a level with the masters, who then receive them into their guild or universitas. in the middle Ages they would then have stayed on the dais, so that their old master could invest them with the symbols of office. But that was only part of the business. the new master had to deliver an inaugural lecture, entertain the whole guild of masters to dinner and preside over disputations for forty days continuously. for that reason, taking one’s master’s degree was called “inception”, or the beginning of one’s career as a master. the academic gowns are derived from the everyday dress of the medieval clergy. in the middle Ages they were not open in front, but closed like a clergyman’s cassock. it was in about 1500 that academics had the front opened up so as to display the fine clothes which they were wearing underneath. the hood was the normal medieval headwear, but it soon acquired a coloured lining. By the 17th century, if not earlier, these colours were strictly controlled so that anyone could identify from the colour of a graduate’s hood, the university and the degree. the public is the fourth participant. it has an important function because the whole point of the proceedings is that they should be seen and heard by valid witnesses. the public hears the words of the dean and the Chancellor and sees the new graduates dressed in their respective gowns or robes. the foregoing is an adaptation of an Address given at a graduation Ceremony at the University of Birmingham by emeritus Professor r h C davis and reprinted in his book ‘from Alfred the great to stephen’ (hambledon Press 1991), pp. 307-309. it is reproduced with kind permission of the author’s widow.

the history of the CentrAL CoAst CAmPUs
in the 1970’s, the new south wales government acquired 80 hectares of bushland at ourimbah for the long-term educational needs of the Central Coast community. By the late 80’s, representatives of the higher education Board, the University of newcastle, the then hunter institute of higher education and a Central Coast Action Committee were meeting regularly to plan the establishment of a tertiary facility on the site. As a result a combined state-Commonwealth working party was established to oversee the development of the ourimbah Campus as a joint venture between the three partners – the University of newcastle, tAfe nsw – hunter institute and the Central Coast Community College. A small ceremony in 1989 saw the facility officially launched by the then minister for education, dr terry metherell, mP. in July of the same year, 64 university students commenced their studies. the first tAfe students commenced in 1991. from that time, a campus master plan was implemented and with Commonwealth grants, an extensive building and landscaping program was undertaken. 16 University degree programs and more than 14 tAfe vocational programs are currently offered at the ourimbah campus. in 2009, almost 8.000 students were enrolled at ourimbah and nearly 1,000 graduate each year. in 2009 the campus celebrated 20 years and planning has occurred for the direction the campus will take through to 2020.
