Director's Message

We are very grateful that SA’s lockdown was of short duration and we can enjoy an almost normal way of life and study. The Grad Centre team are also back in the office, and our front counter is open Monday to Friday, 10am – 4pm.

Nevertheless, in line with SA Health guidelines, we advise that face masks are strongly recommended in shared or open plan spaces where you are working less than 1.5m distance away from other people. They should also be worn whenever you get up from your desk/bench to move around including when using amenities, printer spaces, corridors or meeting rooms, and in University common spaces such as the hubs, except when eating or drinking.

Did you know that there is a Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Information Network (SASHIN) on campus? If you are interested in reaching out to the network for information on supporting a student, or have questions about reporting processes, get in contact with the network member(s) for your Faculty or myself as the SASHIN member for HDRs. You can find more information here.

Stay safe,
Doreen
