Wright Hall, to be opened to student residents in 2019, is named after Louise Tuckwell’s family, which can be traced back to her convict ancestors who came to Australia on the First and Second Fleets.
The hall - along with the new Bruce Hall - is being funded by Louise and Graham Tuckwell in order to provide much needed on-campus accommodation and to generate an investment return sufficient to fund in perpetuity the Tuckwell Scholarship Program at ANU.
