Sir John Monash was an exceptional person. As an engineer, he introduced the Monier process of reinforcing concrete with steel rebar into Australia (Monier was French I think) and built the first reinforced concrete bridges in Australia. He also planned many of the suburban rail routes in Eastern Melbourne that still exist today. He was a long serving member of the militia, the volunteer military organisation that existed before Australia had a professional army. During WWI he ended up a general in the Australian army and served in France, where he essentially invented combined arms assaults, a revolutionary improvement in tactics which prior to that point basically involved mass charges against machine guns and trenches. He used artillery "walking barrages" and the first tanks to support infantry charges. Coming from a German Jewish family, he was subject to bigotry throughout his life. War correspondent Keith Murdoch (Rupert Murdoch's father) wrote to the prime minister to try to get Monash relieved of command and the PM travelled to France to investigate but discovered that Monash was loved and respected by his troops and allies and let him stay. CEW Bean (war correspondent and historian) was another bigot who tried to have Monash sacked.

Also worth mentioning is that his tactics and victories are considered the turning point in rapidly ending the war. As a result, he was knighted on the battlefield by King George. The first time this had happened in over 200 years and remains the last time this has happened. After the war he went on to run the state electricity commission, responsible for the electrification of the whole state and was also vice chancellor of the University of Melbourne. Upon his death 300,000 people attended his state funeral. About 20% of the entire population of the state at that time.

THIS IS MY UNIVERSITY!!!!! As for what she was saying at the start, the land Clayton campus is situated on is the Kulin nation. (You should look up an "Indiginous Australia map" to see the borders of the different indigenous nations.) The aboriginal people that live in the Kulin nation are of the Bunerong people, and she also acknowledges the Wurundjeri people. At the start of all our lectures, assemblies and important announcements etc (not just at Universities but at schools and sporting events and court and in politics), we always acknowledge the land of the people we are lucky to be standing on. 3:30 I use that room. Students sit on tables around the sides. The wall is long panels of whiteboards for collaborative work. The middle ring of screen is for the workshop presentation, conducted by the people in the middle of the room, or maybe they'll present the answers on them. It's a good collaborative classroom. 5:20 correct not all of that is part of Monash, but it's still massive. I think it has ~5 different campuses depending on your course, with the two main ones being Clayton and Caulfield. There are also campuses in Malaysia and Italy.

Technically everything built on Australian soil is on “stolen land”. As part of efforts towards reconciliation, it’s become common practice to acknowledge the lands of the local indigenous communities we live and work on especially at the start of any event or presentation. That’s why she mentioned the lands of the Wurundjeri and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation.

Hi Ryan, regarding the phone number, you are correct: the 61 refers to the code for Australia and the 3 refers to the state (or states, in fact: Victoria and Tasmania. The other codes are 2 for NSW and ACT, 7 for QLD, 8 for WA, SA and NT. 4 is for mobile phones). The reason that there are 8 numbers following this is that the areas are so large. When I was a kid, there were only 6 numbers in our phone numbers, then they added another one and subsequently another one, as the number of phones increased. My mum remembers a time when the areas were much smaller (like a suburb) and there were only 4 numbers in phone number. The stuff you couldn't understand that the lady was talking about refers to the traditional (Aboriginal) custodians of the land on which Monash Uni now stands. There were two main tribes in Melbourne: the Wurundjeri and Boonwurrung peoples who lived within an area of land known as the Kubin nation. They spoke different but related languages. It is standard practice in many institutions to start any meeting with an acknowledgement of country that acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which the meeting is being held and pays respect to Elders past and present. "Did they build this on old Aboriginal land?" Yes, everything in Australia is built on old Aboriginal land, just as the "Beds are Burning" song you watched yesterday refers to. The aerial picture with lots of high-rises shows Monash's Malaysian Campus. I presume that the tall towers in the background are apartment buildings rather than part of the university. The local Melbourne campus is more spread out and leafy than that. No, uni is no longer free (used to be when I went in the 1980s). When my kids went through, it was about AUD10,000 per year, but likely significantly more now. You can choose to pay it off immediately if you have the cash or incur a HECS debt that gets paid off by deductions from your pay once you are earning above a certain threshold. Still much cheaper that full fee paying international students, though. Education is Australia's third biggest export, after iron ore and coal.

You should look up a video on hecs debt to learn how australians pay for university! So funny hearing you try to understand the acknowledgement of country, I think a lot of Australians are numb to it now unfortunately. I visited Monash a couple times for school things and to see friends, the campus is definitely huge for a uni!

Australia has a government-run student loan system (there are a few different versions, but the main ones are HELP and HECS), so in most instances Australian citizens won't pay any up front tuition fees for university. We only need to pay up front for things like textbooks equipment/materials the university can't provide (like lab coats, etc.) We don't have to start repaying our student loans until our annual income exceeds a certain benchmark (currently $48,360 before tax). Your mandatory repayments are taken out of your income as part of the tax calculation, so for the most part it gets paid off passively. Unfortunately there isn't a similar arrangement for international students (unless they're from NZ or on a permanent humanitarian visa), so they usually have to pay tuition up front in cash. It's also common for them to pay a premium above what is charged to domestic students because it's less regulated and the universities get to keep a higher proportion of the fees paid.

Her opening statement is simply an ackowledgement of the aboriginal people and their tribes who lived in this area before European settlement for tens of thousands of years and paying respect to their elders.

To answer your question on whether university education is free in Australia, it isn't. Technically. The full cost of an average degree is about $80k AUD. International students must pay the full fee. Australian citizens are subsidised by the federal government. The government pays about $50k and the remaining $30k is paid by the student. They can defer this fee in part or whole to a federal government loan scheme and repay it in the future via taxation once they're earning a certain amount. Interest on these loans is charged at the rate of inflation. So anyone can access a university education without having to stump up any savings.

All the land was Aboriginal land and as a part of reconciliation efforts for past wrongs and to show respect, in public addresses, we always acknowledge that we are standing upon the land of our Aboriginal elders. Even in kinder the with the little kids sitting on the floor we acknowledge that we sit on their traditional land.

Australian land is divided amongst hundreds of Indigenous groups, similarly to how the Americas have various Native groups. Basic Indigenous history is an integral part of the Australian education system's history curriculum, such as their standards of living pre-colonization, the Frontier Wars, the Stolen Generation, and their fight against discrimination and persecution. What happened at the start was an Acknowledge of Country, and Monash Uni sits somewhere between Woi-wurrung and Boon-wurrung land, which cover eastern Melbourne. Melbourne covers 5 indigenous groups collectively called the Kulin Nation. How in depth does the USA teach Native American history, I would love to hear from you!

The federal government has a loan scheme for Australian citizens. It's not means-tested, and available to any citizen. So you can go to Uni without paying anything upfront except buying your textbooks and any other things you might need that are course-specific like lab coats etc. But when you're working later, once you earn over a certain amount per year, the tax office starts taking a percentage of your wage to pay back the loan. The repayment threshold changes slightly each year. You can also choose to just pay for the tuition upfront if you're in a position to do so, and some people do, because there's 5 or 10% charged for using the loan.

Normally a significant overseas student number attend this and other institutions around Australia, These pay significant fees and living expenses to study here. Lots of Chinese and Idia students among others. Quite possibly many US students but Europe especially, Asia however is most. COVID has caused major financial impact to education system as foreign students could not come. Fees are significant, as they do not get 'Free' tax payers funded education. The Institutions get significant funds by charging such fees and thus also fill many student places with such paying foreign students. Most certainly imposing limits on local students access to getting into the institution. This does cause some local reaction. As a result of reduced income from fireign students during Covid restrictions and shutdown of travel , many have had to let staff including lecturers technical support, tutors even some professors go, at least till full foreign student numbers recover. But that recovery is well underway. China is still lower numbers than before. Basically anyone with enough education level and able to pay the fees has opportunity to study in Australia, with needed visa approved. Local students get places, based on success at secondary school to 12th year, achieving sufficient final score determining 1st level placements followed normally by secondary offer of places for some subject areas. Some courses are in such demand that places are exceeded by numbers wanting places, these inparticular are friction points when foreign students effectively displace local student opportunities. Institutions using income over local student capacity. Do well enough, even doing extract school subjects well, can boost your entry score to real upper levels, such for some areas of study are almost essential to get a place.

0:37 Australian phone numbers are: ‘+’ for international dialling code (0011 here), 61 is our country code, 3 is the area code for Victoria/Tasmania (NSW is 2, QLD is 7, WA/SA/NT are 8), the first 4 digits of your (landline) number determined which exchange you originated from, and the last 4 are your unique phone number.

Sir John Monash ( last name pronounced as in ‘ON’) achievements above what were briefly mentioned is also credited with winning decisive battles in WW1 that began the beginning of the end of the German Army, George V ( the king of England) wanted to replace General Haig (the Supreme Commander at the time) with General Monash, but at the time you could not have a jewish commoner being overall commander of British and allied troops as this is ‘just not done’, the only time that American troops have been led into battle by someone other than an American was by General John Monash, his skills as a war tactician are still taught today in military academies all around the world including your West Point. Early criticisms of Monash’s performance were relayed back to Australia by Kieth ( later Sir Kieth) Murdoch ( yep Ruperts dad) as he was trying to get him replaced by one of ‘the right people’ (meaning not a jew) thankfully the Murdoch influence failed as the Prime Minister went over himself and contrary to Murdochs reports the troops loved him and probably would have gone on strike had he been replaced and some 100 years later the Murdochs are still at it.

True Monash was the designer of our tactical retreat from the Gallipoli.

My first uni.

That is the Clayton Campus. It was a former farm. There was a ex drive in near the synchtron. It was named after John Monash. A civil engineer, general and founding director of the State Electricity Commission of Victoria. Lots of stories about him.

+61 is the Australian code then followed by the number minus the 1st number as +61 take the 1st number. But this is if you call from outside Australia

I studied at Monash University in the early 2000s. I Also got to experience 3 different campus during my time there. Clayton (main Melbourne campus) Caulfield secondary Melbourne Campus and Sunway Campus (KL Malaysia)

Yes, Monash was built on Aboriginal land, because ALL of what is now known as Australia is aboriginal land. There are approx 250 tribes (mobs) and within each mob, several family groups (aka clans). There is a language for each mob and around 800 dialects. It is common here to acknowledge which mobs were the original inhabitants/custodians. This is done for events including if you go to see a concert or a play or a talk. Often there were several mobs conjoining in that area. For example, one might say "We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we are, the Jagera and Toorbul peoples".

Monash University in Victoria, just before covid (2019-2020) Victoria had about 500,000 international students. some in secondary school the rest in trade and university programs. "International Education" is Victorias largest export at about 60 billion Australian dollars.

I went to Monash from 1992 to 1997 and again from 2006 to 2009 (Clayton both times). It’s changed so much I barely recognise the place now!

I go there! I absolutely love it it’s such a beautiful space

every part of australia is an indigenous country (different areas are different nations) and pretty much every formal event/text/video/website has an acknowledgement of country unique to the area it is in. Monash university is in the Kulin nation.

I'm a first year Monash student ^^

All of Australia was once the land of one of the hundreds of aboriginal tribes. So it is common to acknowledge the people of that area when any event happens. A way of remembering that they were here first - because that was conveniently forgotten for a very long t8me.

Melbourne has 8 Universities over many campuses and close to 300K students. A friend of my daughter lived on campus at Melbourne University but my granddaughter, like most Melbournians just commute daily.

Good video Ryan- Your expressions are priceless x

Wurunjeri and Bunurong people are tribes within the Kulin Nation.

I completed my Masters in Early Childhood Education at Monash University (years ago) at the Peninsula Campus. I also attended other universities over the years, Monash though, is my preferred university 🙂

In all Australian universities, the fees are not free, but you don't have to pay it upfront. You get a Fee-Help loan which means you can pay it back in small payments once your future income reaches a certain threshold. It just comes out of your yearly tax return until it is paid off, and it doesn't matter how long it takes.

It’s “Monn-ash” I have two master’s degrees in nursing with them and for 2023 here’s the numbers 2023 University rankings. - #1 for nursing in Victoria - #2 for nursing in Australia - #15 for nursing globally

It’s like a mini city, has it’s own post office and food court

We have something called HECS (higher education something scheme). The government will loan the money for university and once you are earning over a certain amount they take a bit of your pay each fortnight to pay it back.

My Aunt was won a Monash Beauty Contest in the late 60s my daughter is enrolled now. Most of the courses needs really high marks to get in. Her course is intense.

University isn't free for Australians, but a) It's a lot cheaper than for international students; and b) You don't pay the fees out of pocket, you accrue an interest-free government debt that gets automatically paid back as a tax levy, only after you're making a certain minimum income, until it has been paid off. The fees are pretty low though, especially in comparison to the USA - my entire 3 year university course only totalled an $11,000 debt (albeit 20 years ago) - so the international enrolments which are much more expensive are important because in a way they subsidise the lower fees for Australian students.

Yep that’s exactly what she is saying, the university is build on indigenous land.

61 i believe is the country code then for mobiles i believe it is 4 as in 04 which are 10 numbers long and land line numbers are 8 and generally start with a 62 (or at least in my state of Tasmania they do) so the 3 is most likely a state number idk, it being 10 numbers long though most likely means that it is a mobile number.

Melbourne has 7 universities based there. Monash is just one of them, and a newer one (1958) compared to others. The University of Melbourne (Ranked #1) was established in 1853 and has 55,500 students. RMIT, established in 1887 has 56,000 students. Others include, Swinburne (1908), LaTrobe (1964), Victoria University (1916), and University of Divinity (1910), There are other smaller TAFE colleges (like your community colleges) too. The two top Level 1 universities (in the top 10 in Aust)) are the University of Melbourne and Monash. These 7 universities have over 320,000 students combined in the Melbourne campuses.

The indigenous peoples of the country never ceded ownership and so they still own the place. The entire country is legally aboriginal land.

Aboriginal people do not believe in the concept of ownership of land. Therefore they never were the “owners” of Australian land. So legally they have no legs to stand on.

Acknowledgement of country. Acknowledging that there were actually people here before the colonisation. For example... where I am from, we acknowledge the Kaurna people... the original custodians of the land.

Monash University has some amazing programs

she's mentioning the Aboriginal tribes that have decided that they now own the land the University is on. 37,050aud = 24,612.87usd

Kind of free but you pay interest on the student loan they give you once you graduate and start earning. I went there and orientation was basically.just drinking and bands. If your class was small you could have it in the bar. But you couldn't drink alcohol while in class.

OK SO Phone numbers are +61 for the country, and then 8-9 more digits The people, are the aboriginal australians. YES it is a sign of respect We are just bigger people

University has no upfront costs for aussies, but it’s far from free The debt isn’t considered in your credit report though so the only way your credit is impacted by your debt is that your income is garnished to repay it-so it appears your income isn’t as high until it’s paid off

All of Australia is Old Aboriginal Land so we pay respect to the people who are from that area.
